I think a GPL "like" license is good but it needs to subtract a few
clauses.

The clause in the GPL refers to "source code" i.e. something
which can be compiled into an executable program.

In our case the source code is files in LDraw format, and
the "executable programs" are derivations such as POV-Ray
files, raytraces, and LDraw output in general.

Play well,

Jacob
