I'm not sure what you mean by this point?  They can choose to use a non-free
license if they wish, although I'm don't initially see how the NC helps when it
comes to taking community content into formal, Red Hat-produced JBoss (i.e.,
commercial) documentation.

Potentially, content from a fully-free usage of a CC license might be blendable
with non-free CC licenses.

Regardless, the copyright owner can choose to dual-license.  Is that Red Hat?

As in bz #427483, the original copyright holder can choose to dual-license.  The
NC clause is a restriction of a freedom, making that particular CC license
non-free, and therefore not allowed in Fedora.
