FAQ - Make clear that CERN-OHL could be used for SW (but is not recommended and why?)

Related to the FAQ entry Q: My project includes hardware and software. How do I make sure the whole product is distributed together and stays open source?

In this entry, CERN OHL is not mentioned in the list of recommended SW licences.

Considering the fact that CERN-OHL can be used for software, one may want to have a FAQ entry describing that.
Newcomers in Open (and likely not interested in details of licensing), actually one may think it is easier to have one licence for everything. Sounds more practical, one would not have side effects of incompatibility etc.
