I tried to actually download anything ... and I failed ... seems their
server is way too overloaded currently.

But in the process, there is some "agreement page" saying this:
----
# I agree to redistribute the ASTER GDEM only to individuals within my
organization or project of intended use or in response to disasters in
support of the GEO Disaster Theme. (Required)

# When presenting or publishing ASTER GDEM data, I agree to include
"ASTER GDEM is a product of METI and NASA."
----

Seems not like very open license, though perhaps something better
could be negotiated ...
