Oh, the above were arguments against a GPL like licence.

The social contract was about software (it should be more, but
we stopped with software). It mentions the DF Software G. We should
finish a DF Document G, and add it to trhe social contract, adn
that'll happily accomodate the LCS.
Traditions do not mean moribund. We punted on the issue of
dpcuments, it is about time we went back and cleaned up our act.
