Definitely not. The Open Database License is a kind of share-alike 
license. share-alike does not work for data and cannot be considered 
open. It prevents nearly all interesting use cases and is the contrary 
of "freely available for any use as you wish".
The cc0 licenses Nathan is suggesting are more what you are looking for.
