Certainly their paid downloads would make life easier but my thinking was
actually to take the free CC-BY downloads, turn them into a PostgreSQL
extension (with attribution, links in the docs, etc).

I am not looking at interfacing with their web services.  I am hoping that
it would further be of general interest by geospacial apps so a good place
on pgxn would be helpful to us too.  Hopefully it would help cultivate
contributions to geonames too.

Best Wishes,
