Hi,
1. We have no licenese on our webpage. So it is impossible for a newby to find our license (there is only a statement that it is open source).
ok we should add this - but it is not related to the topic :)
2. We have no license for our documentation. Does somebody have a good recommendation for an open documentation license? ...
After a short look at http://jan.netcomp.monash.edu.au/opendoc/paper.html I would suggest this one: 4. Open Content LicenseThe Open Content License (confusingly called the OPL) is intended to cover any copyrightable material that is digitally available [5]. It covers digital images, documentation, educational materials, digital videos, etc. Essentially, it is based on the GNU GPL, with specific reference to software removed and replaced by ``content'', or simply eliminated.
The Open Content License allows free use of content, while maintaining copyright ownership by the author(s). Modifications are allowed, but if you redistribute the changed version, then the nature of the changes must be made public. The license does not make clear how this is to be done. For example, for documentation a list of changes can be added, or change-bars inserted in the document, etc. However, if an image is modified, then it may be necessary to add the information in as metadata. This can be done for some file formats such as PNP, but not for all.
The License itself is at http://opencontent.org/opl.shtml Oliver -- Diese Nachricht wurde digital unterschrieben oliwel's public key: http://www.oliwel.de/oliwel.crt Basiszertifikat: http://www.ldv.ei.tum.de/page72
