I confirm that my past contributions to OSGeo-Live may be used under the current OSGeo-Live license guidelines. I confirm that my future contributions will be compatible with the OSGeo-Live license guidelines at the time of contribution.
The current OSGeo-Live license guidelines are: * Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported License for Quickstarts * Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Unported License for Project Overviews * A version of LGPL for install scripts * One of the OSI approved Open Source licenses for installed applications I have authored and also checked the contents of the OSGeo-Live Project Quickstart for geonetwork, and as far as I can tell, all source material can be legally included under a Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported License because it incorporates content from the geonetwork user manual which currently is licensed under (Creative Commons license CC-By-SA) which, as explained by table here [3], is permitted to be included in CC-By-SA documentation.

I can't see a problem with that being used by the OSGeo-Live project in a CC-By license - if there is a problem ask the OSGeo Foundation?
