If we get consensus on this list to switch from OPL to CC-BY-SA, then
I'll take the word to the Board. Not that I think we need approval,
per se, but a simple heads up is a good idea. :)
Too late to do it for F11, though. We could just queue it up as a
feature for F12?
As for the rest of the content in the project ... I would think others
would accept Docs decision, but I think a general discussion on
fedora-advisory-board is the best way to go to ensure we air out any
concerns, etc.
The OPL has served us very well for a long time, I'm sad to see us
move from it, but at this point the writing is clear. We gain a lot
by going with a proper CC license.
Anyway, sad as I am, I'd be happy to take on this task, if we have
consensus. I'll include working with
CreativeCommons.org to get us a
splash of attention for it, etc.

Would this include the wiki in addition to the documents we produce?
