We put most of our docs into the public domain (to allow people to cut and 
paste the code examples).

I had consider the logo part of the docs in that respect - let us check.

For reference here is a blurb from our wiki:
- http://docs.codehaus.org/display/GEOTDOC/01+Documentation+License

Looks like that is under the free document license.

Some of the more recent docs and tutorials I have been releasing under the CC 
license as that seems to have more mindshare.
