This is for fedoramagazine.org? (When I get a moment I'll look at the
archives for the marketing list.) I see a legal note in the footer
that is reminiscent of the same for opensource.com.

The terms of use for opensource.com were recently revised to make CC
BY-SA 4.0 the default 'Red Hat original content' license for content
on that site, FWIW. One nice thing about the 4.0 license is it
eliminates the need for the passive-aggressive moral rights clause
waiver, but that is baked into the FPCA. The FPCA does provide for a
mechanism for designating a 'Later Default License' though. The Later
Default License has to be chosen from the list of currently-acceptable
licenses for Fedora.
