If he is the sole author of the book he is not required to do anything. The license states the conditions under which he, as copyright owner, has granted recipients of copies the right to distribute copies. > I'd be interested to hear if others share my interpretation of this > license or if there is some clause that I have missed.

What license is attached to the copy of the book on his Web site? The license on the printed copies is relevant only to them. If (and only if) the copy on the author's Web site contains the GFDL then you have his permission to redistribute it under the terms of the GFDL. -- John Hasler [EMAIL PROTECTED] Dancing Horse Hill Elmwood, WI USA _______________________________________________ Gnu-misc-discuss mailing list Gnu-misc-discuss@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnu-misc-discuss
