I feel disappointed that these are under the "free as in name" GNU
Free Documentation License, which allows anyone to attach uneditable
sections on other subjects.  I have not verified whether they already
contain such non-free sections because the PDF produces errors like
the one below in GPL Ghostscript.

Are there plans to produce "free as in freedom" versions one day?

Does freeculture.org regard GNU FDL as a free Copyleft license?

Should it be viewable in GPL Ghostscript?


Here's the GPL Ghostscript error:
