They won't be online publicly, sorry. At least the most of it. We paid
>200 k€ for the data and signed papers not to give it to 3rd parties.

The hosting organization (those running the servers) might be interested
in adding free data into the services without authentication though. But
that might increase the sumber of users exponentially, so I'm interested
in what kind of loads might be expected. "We" are probably max. 100
simultaneous users at any time.
