This is fine by me. In fact, I think a lot of the uploaded files contain copyright and license information.
Others might like the BSD license, or the Mozilla license, or whatever -- wouldn't it be their option rather than that of the Wiki?
I guess this is up to us. In theory, I guess we could require that only material released under a specific license is allowed to be uploaded to the wiki. Or contributed as text to wiki pages. Personally I don't have a strong opinon on this topic - probably because I haven't really considered it before.
I do however believe that the overall purpose of the wiki is to provide a forum for LyX users to help each other by sharing information in various forms.
