Attribution (CC BY): the most permissive license, and the closest to the apache software license
Attribution-ShareAlike (CC BY-SA): GPL-like, prevents closed derivatives of the docs
Attribution-NonCommercial (CC BY-NC): prevents others from e.g. publishing our docs in book form
Attribution-NoDerivs (CC BY-ND): prevents anything but a verbatim copy of the docs
Various combinations of ShareAlike, NonCommercial, NoDerivs
For comparison, mongodb's docs are under ShareAlike-NonCommercial; I checked cassandra/datastax and hbase but it was not immediately obvious what license their docs used. Tornado uses Attribution-only.
Note from @petermattis: The CC BY license sounds good to me. If Apache-style restrictions (or lack thereof) are good enough for our code they should be good enough for our docs.
