I'd like to use a screenshot of the Rosetta@home screensaver for the Rosetta@home Wikipedia article I've been working to improve. Since the administrators are strict about every uploaded image having a license, I'm going to note is as being under GFDL (since BOINC is under GFDL). Is this correct?

Also, is there any chance BOINC screenshots could be additionally under a Creative Commons license? GFDL limits the number of times an image can be reused, as explained by the following tract taken from Wikimedia Commons:

"The GFDL is not practical for photos and short texts, especially for printed media, because it demands that they be published along with the full text of the license. Thus, it is preferable to publish the work with a dual license, adding to the GFDL a license that permits use of the photo or text easily; a Creative Commons License, for example. Also, do not use the GPL and LGPL licenses as the only license for your own works if it can be avoided, as they are not really suitable for anything but computer programs."

Thanks in advance.

You'll need to ask on the Rosetta forums. BOINC is just the manager, the Rosetta science app generates that screen saver image.
