Please be aware that in at least the EU database compilations _can_ be
copyrighted. It makes life a lot simpler for distributions if you just
pretend that it can be copyrighted and apply a license. If you want
something approaching public domain, the BSD license is an obvious
choice. Going with the LGPL as you propose later in the email is
perfectly fine too.
