Well, I won't pay any money for scientific data. At least in germany, 
scientific facts cannot be copyrighted (example, the fact that Hydrogen 
weights 1.0079u cannot be 'owed' or copyrighted).
I asked them to give me a writte permission for something like hand out for 
free via their webpage. I could write an easy shellscript to grab all of 
their data, for example.
I will just keep the data out of Kalzium. If I wouldn't Kalzium would probably 
even become Debian-non-free.
