I'd like to publicly thank the EUUG (and the French in particular)
for posting ~50K of map data, all of it clearly marked against usage.

It would seem to be more helpful if people posting map data would
either not copyright it.  If someone insists on copyrighting his
map data (why?  e-mail & I'll post summary if any) they should at
least give some sort of permission to use the data.

As it is, the only thing I can do with three froggish map files
totalling approx 50K is to remove them.  I most particularly may
not legally use the data when I compile the maps using "pathalias".

Postmasters with automatic map-unpacking software: are you paying
attention to what is being done, or are you violating this copyright?
