That's why I prefer public domain even to open source -- people spend way too long worrying about that kind of thing.
Now, I would be worried that getting data from other sources and putting it under the BSD license (which makes it possible to use it in closed source programs without permission from the original author) might be a problem for the original authour. Personally I think putting it under the GPL would be less of a problem to them.
