I don't quite know what it means to say that the more Commons is used by
other projects the more it becomes a service project (*), but it certainly
make its responsibility heavier for stating that a document is under a Free

(*) Wikipedia is more and more used as a quick reference in society; should
it make it more subordinate to the interests of governments and
corporations?
