Is there any reason for not putting the content under a "do whatever
you want with it" license (i.e. Public Domain or BSD), and then (if
necessary) allowing people to mark certain contributions with
additional restrictions? Especially given GHC is released under the
BSD.

I can't imagine anything anyone would be able to do with the content,
which would be "bad" and would be stopped by something like the FDL.

Thanks
