    On the plus side, the license says:

    Unihan.txt> Recipient is granted the right ... to freely use
    Unihan.txt> the information supplied in the creation
    Unihan.txt> of products supporting Unicode.

It is not clear that that gives us permission to transform
this data into a anything that would be under a free license,
but we could ask those who released it whether they meant it
to allow that.  Would someone like to contact them and ask?
