Agreed Bertrand, that’s the way we worked with Perl docs in that old golden days, if my memory serves me well.
Content included in the last conversation, addressed to all, had only a single purpose, the intention to provide formal data and processes, dealed by agencies or publishers normally, that could resolve the doubts arisen, if any, on the publication and contractual obligations of a printed book, under the Apache License. It is my understand, that the first action to carry out with the responsible of the project, the leader who will trace the path, will be to accord an agreement between the community and the publisher, for this to define the content, [ how we mange updates, how they are related to the printed book, how many words should have an specific section, what about the screen captures, which content should be extended and which one leave as is, et cetera ] . I understand the publisher Is who kindly offers to invest his own resources to spread and finance the product [ object] Said that, Every collaborator, in order to avoid possible inconveniences of particular origin, shall be responsible of their own content, ensure is well formatted and includes no mistakes. I understand that each collaborator will arrange and make a cession, written and signed, of his contribution to the community, and of course will have permission of his/her contractor – if there is such a personal scenario – on behalf the community.
