I was wondering what kind of licenses are commonly used to distribute and share Mathematica notebooks, such as tutorials and interactive lecture notes, without completely setting them into public domain. >From what I can tell, standard OSS licenses such as GPL with their focus on compiled binaries do not really seem to be appropriate. Maybe the different variations of Creative Commons Licenses [http:// creativecommons.org/license/] are a better fit? Could people in this group share if and why they selected a specific license in a similar siutation? Thanks, Hans-Martin
