[Talk-tr] HGK source

[H. Can Unen]

The link from HGK prohibits the redistribution of maps, Roman is right on
that aspect. The Geographic Names Gazetteer is most probably bound by
different terms and conditions.

The use of the gazetteer is bound by the order of Turkish Armed Forces in
2009, as stated in the link:
http://www.hgk.msb.gov.tr/urunler/diger/gazetteer.html

I'm trying to find that text to see if it allows redistribution or not.
