There's an old and rather cynical piece of wisdom that says it's easier
to apologize for something than it is to get permission in the first place.

My advice would be to go ahead and compile such a collection. If no one
complains, it doesn't matter whether what you're doing is "right" or
"wrong". Sure, that's morally bankrupt, but we don't exactly live in a
perfect world to start with.. and it won't end if someone has to ask
that their files be taken down.
