IMHO, all the technical documentation (including the Release Notes) should be
just licensed by the GPL (preferably, although some authors might prefer a
BSD license for them). The GPL license is used by: the FAQ, the Securing
Debian Manual, the "Introduction to i18n", the Administrator's Guide, the
User's Guide (including Progeny's), the "Euro HOWTO", Developer's Reference,
the Project History, the Debian Reference, the Apt HOWTO, and the New
Maintainer's Guide (maybe some other minor documents in the DDP CVS area
too). 

The Release Notes is probably one of the few (big) documents in the DDP CVS
that does not actually use the GPL license.
