All, Would device data licensed under the Mozilla Public License be compatible with the aims of this Proposal? If so you may wish to evaluate http://51degrees.mobi which provides device data under the Mozilla Public License in addition to a premium paid for data set. Both the free and premium data set is already integrated into the Apache Mobile Filter (http://fiftyone.apachemobilefilter.org/). A clean sheet was used when creating this solution avoiding the possible issues referred to in earlier posts.
You should also consider the matching approach you'll be using early in the design stage as this is linked to the device data being used and the methods used to maintain the device data. 51Degrees.mobi includes matching logic in the data set.
