Hi,

First of all: I am not a lawyer, but nevertheless I did counsel a patent lawyer 
in the past about GPL and its implications.

As Yves already wrote: The WMS data seems not to be a problem.

IMHO we may have a problem with the Navcanada data, since it contains the 
Notice "All rights reserved" (Emphasis by me on _All_).  Since we are using a 
derivative work, this is subject to a license conflict. Clause 7 of the GPL 
than applies: we are not allowed to distribute these data.

Greetings
Olaf Flebbe

Virtualization & Cloud Management Using Capacity Planning
Cloud computing makes use of virtualization - but cloud computing 
also focuses on allowing computing to be delivered as a service.
