I notice that the GTALUG website uses the GNU FDL for "copyleft"
protection. I just started a blog and use the Creative Commons
Attribution-ShareAlike 2.5 License -
http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/2.5/ - which, to my reading,
basically mirrors the terms the GPL offers for software, i.e. the
freedom to modify, the freedom to use for whatever purpose, the
requirement to share any changes under the same license terms, the
requirement for attribution.
Does anyone have any experience to share in creating non-software
projects like documentation or media projects such as podcasts in
which they use a open source license such as the GNU FDL or a Creative
Commons license, and why they chose one over the other?
