Hi all, the original xml docs are written by Chris Lyttle and Dan Mueth. The basically have streted the docbook help file and written some introductions. The documents is under GFDL 1.1. I don't know what others think about this licence. Which licence would be more appropriate? Should I mail to the oringinal aithor to ask for permission to change the licence. If so where do we archive their answers (this list)?
I know - many question. For now I stop extending the help file untile this is cleared.
