Just remember, if you use the GDL your documentation won't be included
in any Debian software (at least not in main), as it is not conpatable
with the Debian Free Software Guidlines. As a user (and sometimes
reviewer) of documentation, I don't see how the GDL gets you anything
more then the GPL; and sometimes gets you less.
