I've put my project to Google code by using the GPL 3 License.
Can I change it to Apache 2.0 ? Including all copyrights in sources.
Updated: I know how to do that. I'd like to know about issues that can happen.
Or I can just change it and don't worry about that?

You can certainly change the license on the Google Code front page for your project by using the Administer tab. This of course will not change any license information in the source itself, which is a good reason for not putting such information in the source.
If you are asking "is it OK to change the license", then if you are the copyright holder, yes it is. Doing so will not however revoke the previous license for existing users of your code.

Go to administer->project summary and change it there. Copyrights in sources you need to update yourself.

I host a small website for my company of the hosting service called Ipage. I use the on website editor to edit my code. When ever I make edits to my HTML or CSS it does not update on the site. I have tried editing the .htdocs file to stop cache but I didn't seem to work. I am open to anything!
Thanks!
You were right on the sense that I does have somthing to do with the cache, but you where wrong in editing the .htdocs file. Ipage uses a cache system that will make the website faster when you have multiple users on it at the same time. This was commonly a problem so Ipage made a little tool for you! http://www.ipage.com/controlpanel/cachecontrol/ That is a link to the page that will allow you to turn of all the cache on your serve.

We are building web based application front end for a web based application using HTML5/CSS3/JQUERY. We are using firebug at the moment which is not helping us good. I would like to know how can i ensure the pages are html5/css3 compliant. I am also looking for a plugin like firebug, which will help my team to make sure we are following best practices and while building quality front end for web based application for fortune 500 client.
If i could get a plugin or any link to web based open source application will be great!
You always want to run tests on here towards the end. But you can also run them periodically.

As codehorse has said you can validate them on w3.org. There is an add on for firebug which can do this for you (I have never used it). https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/validator/
Just found this one while I was looking at other stuff
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/html-5-validator/?src=ss yet again not sure if it works.

Somebody know where I can download archive with W3C web site within latest updates for CSS3 and HTML5 specifications?
If no.. Where i can download good docs about new CSS3 properties?
Big thanks and sorry for bad english ;)
+ to answers: https://github.com/w3c
Take a look at: http://www.w3.org/Style/CSS/specs.en.html
You can see the status of each Module and read whichever ones are most relevant today. Additionally you can print an individual module or you can print the entire CSS 2.1 by downloading it, you have a few options, e.g.
This document is also available in these non-normative formats: plain text, gzip'ed tar file, zip file, gzip'ed PostScript, PDF. See also translations.
http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS2/
Its in your best interest to stick to learning from http://w3.org only - try to avoid other sources when possible (thats just my preference, YPMV)
Also check out http://www.w3.org/standards/techs/css#w3c_all for an easier way to visualize which specs are past the Candidate Recommendation stage.

Wonderfl is a library of flash effects. Their system is entirely built upon the concept that any code can be viewed and edited in a browser, and any code can be 'forked' and modified further. Since the entire system is so 'open-source' (see their legal page), can I use one of these effects in my projects? even for commercial usage such as a web app or website?
I'm not a lawyer, but the way I understand sections 5 and 6 of the Terms of Use page, anyone singing up with Wonderfl pretty much lets go of all copyrights for anything he/she submits to the site. I would think that's a go-ahead.
edit:
Having read their licensing FAQ as well: It's your responsibility to find out the licensing terms for any of the code you want to use. Moreover, if you fork the code, you automatically accept the same license terms for your own forked piece of code. Each piece of code might be distributed under a different license, so you should always make sure. If you can contact the author directly, it might be a good idea to just ask.
P.S. Just in case there is any misunderstanding: Wonderfl is not just a library of effects. It is a community site much like this one, where ActionScript programmers may create programs, show and distribute them to others and ask for advice. This has other implications if, for example, you want advice on a project you are working on for your company - you should always be very certain you are actually allowed to share any code you post on the internet.
I suggest you read their FAQ on licensing: http://wonderfl.net/help#help_license

I'm developing a propietary (non Open Source) Web Application in ASP.NET, and I want to use the Look And Feel of Joomla (images, control distribution, etc.). Is this illegal? I'm violating the license doing this?
Copyright of look and feel is complicated. You should always consult a lawyer regarding something like this, but I think if you use Joomla an inspiration for a design you write yourself you have nothing to worry about. If you're copying it wholesale or using their graphics files you will be on shakier ground.
In general, I believe graphics files will have stronger copyright protections than a stylesheet.
I'd set aside some time and start reading. Good luck!
EDIT: Joomla is under licensed under GPL if I recall.
Unless the images in Joomla are released under a Creative common license, I would avoid using them.
If you want to emulate the look and feel, I think you should be fine. (Note: I am not a lawyer so I might be wrong)
