Shouldn't we also have .OSM covered? :-)
Anyways the most important thing right now is to fix the license of the file that seems to be licensed under the GPL.

    I think "Shapefile" should be written with a capital "S", "ESRI Shapefile". It's also written like that by ESRI.

    "ESRI Shapefile Index", see above
