Summary:                    No license statemement in the sound tarballs
Description: 
I just packaged the en/es/fr sounds in an rpm
(http://www.provocation.net/rpms/ ) and put "GPL" as the license in lack of
better. Obviously, the GPL works for code, not for sound recordings. No
matter how I search the websites though, I can't find any reference to a
license for the sounds. Strictly speaking, when no explicit license to
redistribute is given, copyright applies and redistribution is forbidden.
This is not a good situation, so perhaps you could add a CC license or
similar to the CREDITS-asterisk-core-<lang>-<version> files.

Fedora and Debian are handled by Creative Commons ShareAlike 3.0 license. 
Allison seems to be on board; Digium legal folks creating final contract
(even though I suppose the contract won't be with Digium.)  June (French
prompts) is pending discussion with Clod, who is currently working with her
on other prompt projects.  Hopefully the CC-by-sa license will make sense
to her and we can get this moved out of the way after signing.
