Awesome - if I was handier with the google there's been a long running argument on whether a GIS consists of the data or the software. Well - actually - this is an old article -> http://www.directionsmag.com/articles/sierra-club-vs-orange-county-pra-lawsuit-update-december-10-2011/219926

So - could they GPL the data and get away with that - is GPL compatible with ODBL? I assume MIT is.....

The MIT license mentions software and documentation, so technically you're right, but if you replace "software and documentation" with "data and documentation", then it works fine. Or you could take "software and documentation" to mean include the data in question.
