To me, the dictionaries are obviously an example of "other work" which may be covered by the GPL. Why not?

Some people have suggested that dictionaries are not code, so the GPL is less relevant.

Debian are probably going to be the most "difficult" ones as usual.

Well, yes.

Maybe it makes sense to open the discussion on debian-legal again?

I'd prefer not.

Unless there is one of the more common licenses already on the whitelist which can be used instead. I would really just have used GPLv2 myself. It has one major advantage: Most people will know what it means to them without having to read the fine print of yet another open source license.

I'm fine with leaving it GPL Alan DeKok.
