Lots of distros already have anal policies about what can or cannot
be included (like being licensed only under the One True open
source license).
Not a single distribution has a policy of allowing software only one
license. That is not practical. Fedora allows innumerable licenses
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Licensing
I'd love a linux distro with a policy that says "We refuse
to include
anything that doesn't have adequate docs." I think that's a wonderful
"or else" to resort to.
Unfortunately, such a linux distribution would currently fit on
a 128K thumb drive :-).
(ie) zero effectiveness. The only way to actually get good documentation
is to step up and contribute.
