Sorry, I somehow overlooked this part of your post so repeated the 
suggestion in mine. But as I said in my post, I'm not even sure if we 
want to request things like "I instructed my PostGIS database to build 
this clever index" be shared or if we are content to say that we only 
want sharing where original data comes into play. ("I wrote a random 
number generator and introduced 2,000 nodes at random into the database" 
-> not share; "I opened up an editor and added 2,000 post boxes" -> 
share... don't know.)

Bye
Frederik
