I am thinking about moving doc content from elsewhere (eg OOoAuthors or my or others' own personal websites), where the existing material is under Creative Commons license. If such material could stay under CC on the wiki, then that would be perfect.

It looks like this is the case.

I see no particular reason why some sections of the wiki cannot be under CC and other under PDF. Each page could carry a small license note at the bottom, to indicate which it is, so that contributors (and, in the case of CC-licensed materials, reusers) would know exactly what the situation is.

Yes, agreed. For the existing doc relevant pages we should look
at clarifying the licensing situation by placing a license note
where required.

Does this issue need to be referred to any "higher authority" at OpenOffice.org for a decision, or can we proceed on the basis that material can be placed on the wiki under CC license, with those pages being identified as having that particular license (by placing a license note on them)?

I want to make sure this issue doesn't fall into a black hole and never get a decision and action. Thank you all!

I don't know if the community council has any stakes in that.
The current situation is that there is no general license term.
I will check back with Stefan Taxhet on his thoughts on that.
