WHERE do you guys get your ideas about copyright from??  Sheesh,  
you're being a poopy-head, Iván.  TeleAtlas data is copyrighted, and  
when licensed is licensed under an incompatible copyright.  Other data  
is either in the public domain or not copyrightable or licensed under  
a compatible copyright.  I'm like, well duh!
