If their past public statements are any indication, I'd say the chances are poor. From a 2004 post by Wendy at: http://www.greenmap.org/gm/forum/viewtopic.php?p=90 "There has only been a bit of research into the CC or GNU license to date, but it did not seem an ideal fit with the need to protect the Icons from being used by potential "greenwashers" or those who might use them in a way that might damage the credibility of all Green Maps. The copyrighted Icons are to be used only on registered Green Maps or materials that promote Green Maps." Their wikipedia entry also says: "Green Map System is concerned with maintaining control of copyright and trademark in order to preserve the perceived integrity of the system; they wish to prevent the use of Green Maps in greenwashing[2] and do not allow public use of their assets."
