Hi so IANAL but today I had a good talk with a friend that wanted to sell the OOoAuthors book. However he argued about the CC license had a Non-Commercial clause. However I wonder how are we following this. I know that OOoAuthors is selling the work through Lulu.com so we can all argue about if it's legal for Lulu.com from profit from OOoAuthors. I am sure there is just a big missunderstanding and is perfectly legal to distribute the manual.
The CC license OOoAuthors is using is *not* the one with the non-commercial clause. It is http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/2.5/ or later for the printed copies. It is legal to commercially sell works licensed this way.
Your friend is thinking of this license: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/ --Jean
