just to interfere: There *is* definately confusion about the licenses at 
OOoAuthorts.
But I'd like to resolve this within the germanophone team first. .. but 
from what I can tell, the people at OOoAuthors sem to think, that GPL/CC 
is a general decision.

It is the only license for materials in editable formats. And as said on 
IRC .. OpenSource documentation that is not editable (per license) is 
nonsense.
That's why I asked you to point to the documents at the OOoAuthors side 
(but even this is juast a workaraound .. the better way was to see 
editable content at the OOo website).

Daniel .. you are member of the CC, so you should have been one of the 
first persons to see the problem and avoid it. Discussion about the 
"accepted" project licenses has taken place within the CC .. and it was 
clearly stated, that PDL is for editable content, CreativeCommons for 
non-editable documents.
