Please understand the motivation for OPENING this discussion -- not to
debate which license or what license, but to propose a few concrete
things the LP coding team can do to clarify licensing and (perhaps) make
it easier to upgrade the license if that's desired.

I particularly think it would be a good idea to make sure that all files
in the source tree -- code and docs -- have both copyright and licensing
statements in them.

More particularly, does anyone object to me adding a GFDL 1.1 or later
notice to the doc files I have written?

Best wishes,
