I actually hadn't considered the license for documentation of !postActiv I don't think GS/StatusNet had either.
I will make the documentation I write CC-BY-SA, I think. The GNU Free License is a headache of leagalese while the Creative Commons licenses are just fine and much less confusing in my opinion.

@eibhear It does violates the four freedoms.

@eibhear I don't mind it in say, games, where you wouldn't want a competitor re-using your game assets in a competing game. But I don't think it belongs attached to the documentation of a project.
That's just my 2c.

@eibhear (Even RMS has said its okay to have non free art assets and the like if they're easily replaceable: "Images and sounds need to be free if they are essential parts of the software. But if they are just decoration, and easily replaced, then they do not have to be free." )

@eibhear In general it's use in games projects becomes a compromise with artists to allow the use of their work. But it's more ideal to have CC-SA or CC0. CC-BY-SA is a harmless addition as well.
