only good for "your own noncommercial use or benefit" and they may not be 
reproduced or "unbundled". so as long as aren't selling the data or using it 
as a feature in a service we are selling and keep the attribution information 
(which happens to include ads in this case, apparently) then it's ok. but 
attribution is required .. and the non-commercial bits may be a problem for 
KDE distributors who sell their product for a profit.
