Hello,
|
|
|
|
There is no way we are going to make every one happy with this. I suggest
|
|
we completely scrap the the biolerplate license. Were not laywers and we
|
|
shouldn't pretend to be.
|
|
|
|
My suggestion to list links to various licenses that are acceptable.
|
|
|
|
1. OpenContent
|
|
2. OpenPublication
|
|
3. GFDL
|
|
|
|
|
|
If anybody knows any other "documentation" licenses add them to the list.
|
|
We should state that if they do not like one of the above licenses then
|
|
they can write their own. If they write their own there should be some
|
|
guidelines as to what is acceptable license for documents that will be
|
|
included within the LDP.
|
|
|
|
Joshua Drake

Instead of asking why a piece of software is using "1970s technology,"
|
|
start asking why software is ignoring 30 years of accumulated wisdom.
