 Dear Ole,
 . 
 Thank you for your inquiry about use of the 2MASS data products.
 .
 It is the case that all 2MASS image, catalog and database products are
 released in the public domain.  We state this explicitly on many of
 the image galleries (e.g.
 http://www.ipac.caltech.edu/2mass/gallery/index.html),
 but you are correct that it isn't actually stated for the catalogs.
 .
 We do ask that when any 2MASS image or catalog products are used
 that the acknowledgement given in section I.8.b be included
 (see http://www.ipac.caltech.edu/2mass/releases/allsky/doc/sec1_8b.html).
 .
 "This publication makes use of data products from the Two Micron All Sky
 Survey, which is a joint project of the University of Massachusetts and
 the Infrared Processing and Analysis Center/California Institute of
 Technology, funded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration
 and the National Science Foundation."
 . 
 Sincerely,
 The 2MASS Helpdesk
