I would prefer a license similar to the one used by the Wikipedia (I think,
I accidently sent it someone instead of to the list):

    
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Text_of_the_GNU_Free_Documentation_License>

but am somewhat indifferent.

A strength of this license is that people can use the text and snippets also
for unanticipated uses. It also signals that "we are not in it for the 
money"
(which ought to be clear, but making it explicit would probably be seen as
something positive).
