Debian considers OPL to be non-free.  Yet the main
debian.org web is under OPL.  Apparently many in Debian also
consider the CCAS2.0 to be non-free, see
http://people.debian.org/~evan/ccsummary.html

I don't much care what the website uses; despite the claimed
non-freeness I think OPL or CCAS2.0 would be fine.
