In general osgeo recommends use of Creative Commons license for documentation, in order afford writers the same "remix" culture we enjoy in our open source projects. The alternative is of course the writing practice of "quoting" and "citation" but does does not provide the same ability to format shift and otherwise enjoy playing with words.
As example GeoTools license page: https://docs.geotools.org/latest/userguide/welcome/license.html It is a pain when folks try and use open source licenses to cover documentation as it does not really fit :) -- Jody Garnett On Fri, 28 Feb 2020 at 06:36, Pierre Abbat <p...@bezitopo.org> wrote: > On Friday, 28 February 2020 02:40:30 EST Mateusz Loskot wrote: > > Are you considering separate licences, one for source code > > and one for documentation? > > Yes.
