Thank you very much Sander

your reading is very close to mine. And you have got to cite the
source, clearly.

Would you say that, as such the data are indeed, said open but of no
direct or simple use to help improve OSM ... that is already very good
in Brussels ?

Do you see any other simple way for us to use the data, than asking
for another licence ? I know that this process will not be simple or
fast as it will impose at best a revision by some (more than 1)
administrations and private companies (wherein I think belgacom) and
also a goverment decision but the goverment of the Brussels Region. By
I could ask for that.

Regards,

Nicolas
