Some CC licenses like CC-BY-SA and CC-BY can be compatible with free software licenses. It's often easier to just license the resources of a program the same as the code, so there are no conflicts.

Excuse my ignorance, but can OS licenses be applied to other than code (content, text, images, ... etc) ?

I mean, really ignore the impact of licensing content with OS license, any references?
