the best thing, you could do is to try to get the doocument to a status,
so that it fits to it's own license. That means .. mention all copyright
notices, attach a clear license notice and define a invariant section,
so that the original purpose of the manual gets clearer.
I can't speak for OOoAuthors either, and I'm not a licensing expert
either, but I agree with Andre's advice. Licensing is not something you
should just ignore. The ideal solution (and possibly the most difficult)
is to get in touch with all the contributors and get them to agree on a
license.
Personally I really don't like invariant sections. I think that the
concept flies in the face of what open source stands for. But if that's
what you want, GFDL is the license for you (this is why I don't like the
GFDL).
Cheers,
Daniel.
