Howdy,I want to know if a work licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Unported license[1] can be used in another work that is going to be licensed under the GNU Free Documentation License v1.3[2] ?
"Why am I asking this ?"Well, I am chalking out a website documentation page for Awesome Window Manager and might be using (part of) the .awesomerc[3] configuration file available in the Awesome's wiki. I observed that "content" published under the Awesome's wiki is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Unported License & gNewSense's documentation is licensed under the FDLv1.3. Now I am under a dilemma whether to use the .awesomerc file for gNewSense docs.
So, I want to know if it is okay to derive from the .awesomerc file and use it in gNewSense' docs.
I thank you for your help. [1] : http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/ [2] : http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/fdl.html [3] : http://awesome.naquadah.org/wiki/Awesomerc -- rsiddharth http://rsiddharth.ninth.su/
