sorry, for writing in English, but it's a lot easier for me - I'm not half
as good in French as I am in English.

No problem and again great to have you here to clarify this.

The guides on oooauthors are initially released under GPL and CC, but all
authors also agreed to allow OOo to use them under the PDL, this means,
that stuff, that is written in one of the guides there can be reused for
your own documentation.

I was aware of it for the migration guide but not for the others.

The decision was made on the authors-mailinglist:
http://user-faq.openoffice.org/servlets/ReadMsg?list=authors&msgNo=8939

Beforehand, there were several discussions with Daniel Carrera (dcarrera),
André Schnabel (AndreSchnabel) and Christian Lohmeier (cloph) and the
final solution was, that documentation from oooauthors can be reused as
"initial writing" under the PDL.

The Germanophone project has added this already to our guides (a copy from
one chapter of the writer guide):

- GNU General Public License (GPL), Version 2 or later
(http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl.html).

ok
- Creative Commons Attribution License (CCAL), Version 2.0 or later
(http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/2.0/).

ok

This means, that the editable versions are also available through the
ooo-website.

ok, thanks this is all clear now :)

Voilà, pour ce qui a été jusqu'à présent. Maintenant si certains
souhaitent participer à OOoAuthors, cela leur appartient bien sûr :)

I hope, that this might help to remove some of your doubts regarding
documention from OOoAuthors.

Yes thanks a lot.
Kind regards
Sophie
