Admittedly I'd like to leave the legal stuff to someone who has better
expertise on this topic .... If it's just about _storing_ the data in
whichever form, I think we have multiple opportunities to offer.
Nevertheless I'd be very careful about this clause:

So, _if_ OSGeo would provide public hosting for such a dataset, I guess
they would be liable to ensure that users are going to obey the given
rules .... and I don't have the slightest clue how this would have to
be accomplished.
Cheers,
Martin.
