In the process of creating the charter for this other group I reviewed
your Governance Principles and was particularly taken by the ideas
there. I used much of the same language, with some changes ( ownership
became stewardship for instance ), as a Preamble to our charter.
This shouldn't be a problem. All content on our wiki and web sites is
covered by a Creative Commons license referenced in the footer.
In particular, we use the "CC Attribution Only 3.0" license. This
license grants most copy/distribute/modify rights to you, though it does
require an "attribution" notice stating where you got it.
The specific rights with more detailed language are available here:

Does that help clear up what you're permitted under what conditions?
Thanks!
If you really would like to take the language without an attribution for
some reason, let us know and we may consider a special one-off license
for you.
