This may actually be a typo in the Vim documentation.  The help
specifies that it uses the Open Publication License (the same license
used by Steve Oualline for his Vim book) yet the URL is for the Open
Content License.  Both license texts use the OPL acronym, which may be
the cause of the confusion.

There's an open bug against Vim (#384019).  I'll bring up the
inconsistency with Bram and add his response to the bug report.
