Over on the freebie wiki, I just chased a free-use license down a rabbit-hole... and came up with two of them instead of the expected one. So, here's the start of a list of licenses, in MediaWiki markup:
* GNU doesn't have an "art" license, instead sending people to FSF
* FSF doesn't have an "art" license, instead sending people to artlibre.org
* [http://artlibre.org/licence/lal/en/ artlibre.org Free Art License 1.3]
* [http://opensource.org/licenses/artistic-license/ Open Source Initiative Artistic license] - two versions
And there's always Creative Commons. Anybody got a link for them?
This (hypothetical?) page should also mention "putting your work into the public domain" - which is not the same as offering a license for it....
I guess it could count under the GNU Free Documentation License
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNU_Free_ ... on_License
It's naturally designed for non-fiction works but I don't see why it couldn't be applied to literature.
(The trip down the rabbit-hole was because a 3D model mentioned the "GNU Fan Art" license - which isn't listed on the GNU license page. I should ask whether the artist intended to use GPL or LGPL...)
GFDL != L/GPL.
What extensions were you looking at? I'm a nosy bastard.
