Actually, It seems to me the FDL has been designed for linear evolution of a manual, and not for using the material of the manual in other contexts. While the pool of GPL works allow a "mix and pick" approach, this is actually denied by the FDL. People can see this as a problem or not, I personally do. All the material I find on gnu.org, in fact, talks about direct evolution of a manual or FDL work in general. I was sure I had seen reference to building a pool of free documents whence to build from, but I can't find it today. /alessandro -- Quello che scrivo rappresenta solo il mio personale punto di vista, non rispecchia l'opinione di organizzazioni di cui faccio o ho fatto parte. _______________________________________________ Discussion mailing list [email protected] https://mail.fsfeurope.org/mailman/listinfo/discussion
