I don't know...is it worth it?  Probably not, but, technically, any way you
look at it, giving away the ICSD data over the mailing list IS stealing from

from somebody with a CD-RW drive.  But they'll only use it for a couple of
times per year!  What is the difference between that and what we are doing?
