License Laws FAQ, as it relates to gaming, is something that I do not
believe I've ever encountered before. Allow me to rephrase that - I do
not believe I've ever encountered a central location that speaks about
the various licenses available and what they mean to a designer,
developer, or what have you.

Having a central repository of legal information relating totally to
games.. hrm, neat idea, but what value is it? From my perspective,
superficial as it is, there doesn't seem to be much merit in such a
thing.

I'm admittedly unfamiliar with the scene; are there really that many
variations out there?
