OK. I just read the license requirements and it seems
to be pretty informal. 

can we point to creative commons attribution share
alike license as the recommended license instead of
the boilerplate one. The advantage of using it is that
I dont need to go through the license everytime I find
a document.

I believe that all documents in tldp should be
modifiable as a requirement rather than as a mere
recommendation. It would require rewritting it from
scratch if the document is not maintained and the
author is not reachable
