The 4.0 license seems new and according to wikipedia has few endorsements/approvals. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_free_and_open-source_software_licenses 

I like that it is strongly copylefted and GPLv3 compatible (oneway); perhaps that's one reason why you chose it? 

If we are only going to use it for documentation, tips, tricks and some scripts/code snippets, I don't see that it would hold anyone back from contributing. Not sure until it got broader approvals that we should use it for group-developed software just yet as the lack of approvals might hinder adoption in places that care about that. 

That's a long way of voting >>"Yes"<< unless someone has strong objections otherwise, based on info I missed. 

Best regards to all, 
Mark
