A simple statement that the text needs to be something that we can include under whatever license we come up for the deliverables we produce will suffice. My hope remains that we settle on MIT. If the W3C and WHATWG can't come to an agreement on a license, then we will need to revisit this -- but then again, we will need to revisit a lot of assumptions, so I would recommend that we cross that bridge when we get to it. - Sam Ruby
