Agreed, one problem with OSD would be that it doesn't cover CC licensed materials or non-software - we do have themes, artwork and so on that are CC. On a sidenote, we have themes that are CC SA 2.5 (due to license of template from Fremantle), which would fail the DFSG definition and not being admittable to extras free in such a situation.
