Those licenses can apply to any software, not just programs. So, if the software is an audio work or picture, a software license like GPL or Expat can apply to it. > Anyway, what recommendation should I make that will satisfy the > DFSG? Thank you for your constructive thoughts. If the work is accompanying a program, it makes sense to license it under the same software license. In the case of a software work that has no programs, a license like Expat should be fine. Even the GPL terms could be used, so long as it's clear what "the preferred form of the work for making modifications to it" means for that work. -- \ "Smoking cures weight problems.
