Hello all,

So far as I can understand:

1. A development guide tells you how-to use many different FOSS products
with explanation on how they will work together to help the reader create
more free software.
2. Manuals are and must be free.

So, the bone of contention is "a manual" Vs "a collation of manuals with
input that bridges them relevance between them" (using the term
"development guide").

My two cents is that going by the rule of free works and their derivatives
must also be free, the author should consider releasing the book (TXT or
PDF format) under a copyleft license and to be fair to the effort the
author has put in, he should charge a fee for the kindle/e-book
hardcopy/printed/paper edition.

Thank you.
