We don't have a policy on this but should.  For the CSI docs I've been
using OPL1.0 or later.  But I'm also curious about licenses regarding the
data in our databases.  I had a brief discussion with Tiemann several
months ago and there are some interesting freedoms we can do here, for
example licensing some of the account system information so that we Fedora
don't own it, but instead each user ownes their own data and have sole
responsibility over what happens with it.  But that's a longer discussion
for another time.
