as part of the website transition we should discuss the new copyright for

thanks!

Additionally I believe you ought to get a copyright release to re-use the 
existing content from IC Group.

I think Meng can arrange that and that is kind of what Meng meant.

I was able to talk with Meng some on IRC tonight and we discussed this
a little bit.  I suggested using the GFDL, because that is what
wikipedia uses.  I also suggested public domain.  The creative commons
license is another option.


To be honest, I really don't know enough about these non-code licenses
to know what would be best for us.  Hence Meng's request to add the
discussion to the agenda.


If any of you know something about this subject (which means you
probably know more than I do), please speak up.


thanks.
