[p2p-research] Wiki Content License

Michel and all,

I am concerned about the "Non-Commercial" CC license used for the
content of the P2PFoundation wiki.

What is the reason for this choice?

"Non-Commercial" is incompatible with the goals of Free Software (any
license disallowing commercial use is categorized as a non-free
license) and will also become a burden to our organizing in the
physical realm.

Commerce has big problems now, but those issues can be repaired.

We want to be able to trade and share amongst ourselves.  Does
"non-commercial" allow that?

What is the definition of "commercial" as mentioned here:
