Hi, - Aucune contrainte d'accès pour la consultation
means that there is no constraints to consult the data. For them, copying the data from the PICC into OSM by JOSM is not copying... That's the answer I had. And as this is an answer which agrees me, I won't try to have another, which would make me unhappy... Unless not before we can gather a hundred of people in front of the Governement Walloon to ask more, or simply have an hundred of people joining open knowledje (http://www.openknowledge.be/) and creating a mass movement. The situation is not the best and it is not clear, I admit and they reckon that, and some people are doing a great job inside the administration to make things going better. Philippe Henry is not Minister any more for one year, now. (off-topic : And I am not sure that I would be happy if what a minister is decided is immediatly executed... That's a part of democraty. Even if it slows down things when they go in a way I am happy with. I prefer this situation). The WMS service definition is not up to date, you already have mentioned that.
