: That's largely up to you -- and it's essentially an opportunity for you to reach out to other friends of role-playing, and to communicate to them the importance of free content. You can add pictures, links to important web sites, philosophy, etc. I'd like you to think about what would appeal to you if, as a role-playing fan who has never heard about free content, you viewed this portal for the first time. The one thing that's important to me is that we always make it clear that this is about free content, and that non-free content, where it is useful, should be made free to the largest extent possible. To create subpages e.g. for philosophy or other purposes, use the <nowiki>[[/subpage title]]</nowiki> syntax.--[[User:Erik Möller|Erik Möller]] 15:07, 4 May 2006 (CEST)

::I would be happy to do that because I can copy content from my organisation, the [http://www.freeroleplay.org Free RPG Community]. My only concern is that content here is licensed under the CCPL. I feel the Free Content Definition should remain license-agnostic, but by CC'ing content here it favorus the Creative Commons licenses and, while some of us my share the CC's aims, not all of us would support its licenses. There is also the problem that content I submit here goes under the CC which means that I can't copy content back to my own (non-CC licensed) pages due to license incompatability. --[[User:Rgladwell|Ricardo Gladwell]] 13:28, 5 May 2006 (CEST)

::: Our license, CC-BY, is probably one way compatible with the GPL, since all it requires is attribution, i.e. less than the GPL -- this itself is a right which you cannot even give up under European jurisdictions.--[[User:Erik Möller|Erik Möller]] 14:09, 5 May 2006 (CEST)
