I'm not even sure your materials are great, and besides, they're not 
software.

It's not a strange question. You decided to post an unsolicited 
advertisement on this mailing list, and you'd better expect some discussion.

I personally release everything I create under a free license... the 
samples of my drum kit, translations (of course) and my music.

Anyhow, the decision for license is really your business, but posting an 
advert on this mailing list doesn't seem very much different than spam 
(and in my opinion this is so regardless if you've contributed to free 
projects and free software).

All the best,
Petter Sundlöf
