Licenses currently found in the non-free archive section include:

    [...]
    * Open Publication License

However, it might be possible to convince the maintainer.  But before we
try to reach him we should have a thorough understanding of possible
alternatives.  I've talked to him a couple of months ago, and while he
agreed that the current choice is suboptimal, he wasn't easily convinced
of just using a DFSG-free software license (and I didn't know, and still
don't know, any documentation-specific DFSG-free license).
