+Looks nice - as long as orange/yellow is not used along this blue,
+that would be ok - but being too near the Mandriva color scheme is an
+issue to be aware of.

+Using Creative Commons licenses is an excellent option. But the
+NC/Non-Commercial clause is a no-go. It makes the thing licensed
+totally incompatible (in spirit and in detail) with FSF/OSI definition
+of free software/open source - thus makes redistribution/derivatives
+of the Mageia platform (and that's not what we want for the
+distribution).
+
+CC-By-SA is perfectly acceptable on the other hand (that's what would
+be the most like sort of a GPL translated for non-software works - and
+we use it for the wiki).
+
+
+Cheers!
