Since the CVS is ready, it's time for us to discuss licensing issues
regarding what documentation should be allowed in the OSWG documentation
repository.
In my opinion, for the sake of simplicity, any documentation having the
following characteristics should be allowed:
1) it can be freely reformatted
2) it can be freely distributed
Beyond that, I think it should be up to the copyright holder(s) as to
what specific license they decide to use. For example, if the copyright
holder(s) want their documentation to be freely modifiable, they can
choose a license that allows for that.
Thoughts?
If this is okay with the majority of folks, we should probably compile a
list of licenses that have those characteristics. If you know of such a
license, send a note with a URL.
