Thank you very much for your efforts! I really do appreciate it :D

Regarding the license, I would suggest that you mention it clearly which makes it easy for others to use your work if they come across it. This would only take few seconds if you visit this site (https://creativecommons.org/choose/) to help you with your license choice.

Yeah it probably would be a good idea to explicitly state the conditions of the use of the data so there is no confusion. Thanks for the link as well! (I have actually been doing a little reading on the free software licenses (morality and practicality) and the differences between the Free Software Movement and the Open Source Initiative. Very fascinating stuff!) I will add the license terms in some way soon. I also think that an official license written by legal professionals is a better choice than a random disclaimer written by me ;)

Database Update:
I have some good news! In response to my previous update, I had a very generous forum user offer to pay for the cost of the hosting plan in full! The user asked to be kept anonymous because public recognition was not the reason for their generosity. So I am glad to report that I have used the user's contribution to pay the hosting plan at GoDaddy to keep the database page online for at least another year! Hopefully I can find time in the future to make the contribution worth it by being more active with the database.

Thanks again to all who are supportive of and patient with the project!
