I like the license choice, but the text seems to be for a footer, as we see on many websites. Since these are not web pages, should we put it at the end of each doc? Do they give any guidance on how to apply it?
I followed the guidance at https://creativecommons.org/choose/results-one?license_code=by-sa&jurisdiction=&version=4.0&lang=en but it isn't very specific on how to apply it to a repository, so I went with the GitHub way of a LICENSE.md
file.
At this point adding it to each doc won't be hard, but I don't think we want to do that to every file in the other repositories that we are considering the CC BY-SA license for. Based on that I thought this was a good compromise. We could also add it to the base of the README to make it more visible.
If it seems OK based on what they say, then it's OK with me.
This is the recommended text from the CC website. Do we need more?
