I think Daniel agreed to change any wording that was thought inappropriate. If the owners of the copyright for the material on the OOoAuthors site agree, there is no reason I can think of why you can't move work from OOoAuthors to the documentation and license it in what ever way the copyright owners say is OK. They can still have their own license for the same material on the OOoAuthors site. While it might be a bit unusual, its up to the copyright owner to decide on the license so you could have different licenses in different circumstances. > You make your choice to be part of the OOo project or not.# You make a choice to be part of parts of the project or not. For example, a person might be part of the marketing project and do things through the web site in an agreed way with that project. They might also do something entirely not part of that project but nevertheless would promote the marketing of the product. One of the strengths of Open Source projects is diversity and freedom to innovate. > When > contributors come to the project and don't accept the PDL, they put > their documentation elsewhere and you put the link to it on our site, > that's all.

So if the only problem is the wording on part of the site that was in a language Daniel doesn't speak and he offers to immediately change it, why is there this storm in a teacup? It seems totally a waste of time and energy. From here it looks like waiting for an opportunity to discredit Daniel. I do hope this is not the case. -- Ian Lynch <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ZMSL --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
