The information regarding the license is currently added both to the README
of the example for 1, and also on the docs for the API call for 2.
Are you suggesting that some kind of warning be provided during download of
these datasets?

The link (
https://github.com/google/googletest/blob/ec44c6c1675c25b9827aacd08c02433cccde7780/googlemock/docs/DevGuide.md
)
states the following at the bottom :

"This page is based on the Making GWT Better
<http://code.google.com/webtoolkit/makinggwtbetter.html> guide from the Google
Web Toolkit <http://code.google.com/webtoolkit/> project. Except as
otherwise noted <http://code.google.com/policies.html#restrictions>, the
content of this page is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution 2.5
License <http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/2.5/>."

At the top it states the following ::

"All Google Mock source and pre-built packages are provided under the New
BSD License <http://www.opensource.org/licenses/bsd-license.php>."

Since the CC-BY license states "except as otherwise noted", does this mean
that the CC-BY-2.5 license at the bottom is void ?
