Bug Description
SpreadUbuntu uses a CC-BY-SA for all material policy, but allows users to choose a double license if they want to.
This need to be discussed a lot more.
Is Public Domain instead of CC-BY-SA for all material a viable solution combined (or not) with a double license policy?
We need to solve this question once and for all! And remember that this applies to all Ubuntu marketing material that will be uploaded/shared through the Spread Ubuntu site.

I think that we are unable to make it public domain because the ubuntu
logos are not public domain.
I think we could add more license options like gnu fdl and ccby.
Although canonical has a pretty well spelled out policy on logo usage,
I think they may have to also allow use under an open source license,
since it is included in the open source os.
I'm not very good with this licensing stuff though, so double check
all that.
