So, in the FAQ on creativecommons.org, and on the "Licenses explained"
page, the GNU Free Documentation License is recommended for software
documentation.
However, there's no explanation for why this is so. It'd be nice to
have a page saying why the FDL is recommended, and especially why it's
recommended over any of the Creative Commons licenses.
- The GFDL is specifically tailored for software documentation
- It already has a substantial following in that domain
- CC doesn't want to compete with the FSF
Ok :-)
I have found this doc on the web that focuses on some problems of Gnu-Fdl: http://home.twcny.rr.com/nerode/neroden/fdl.html
Are they true problems?
If yes, why not thinking about developing a new CC Gnu-Fdl documentation license?
Thank you,
