We at Open Resources
are very interested in using a license which makes most of our
contents “free documents”, in the same sense of “free software”. We
have examined many licenses, without finding anything appropriate.
So we designed the Open Resources Magazine License (ORML), and we
would like to know the opinions of the free software community
about it.
We feel that having free documents is going to be as important
as having free software, at least with respect to articles and
documentation about free software (but probably in other areas
too). Many people seems to believe the same, according to the
conditions under which they let people use their work. But we feel
that we still need something like the GPL for documents, so that
anybody wanting to make her/his work free, can do it easily.
