(Small addition before I get flamed heavily)

The FSF-advocacy of the FDL is optional, but even this part beeing written
down in the FDL makes it hard to find out whether something FDL-licensed
actually is free or not and makes the license a rather bad choice.

IMHO a BSD-style license is a very good choice for documentation, but other
people may have other preferences..
