Documentations and opinions or expressions are different matters. After my personal review of those above statements, I do not see any conflict to say that Hyperbola is free culture and that its documentation is free, even with opinions included that shall not be changed. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ich_bin_ein_Berliner "Ich bin ein Berliner" (German pronunciation: [ˈʔɪç ˈbɪn ʔaɪn bɛɐ̯ˈliːnɐ], "I am a Berliner") is a quotation of U.S. President John F. Kennedy, in a speech given on June 26, 1963, in West Berlin. Now if somebody wish to provide documentation that says that: "Ich bin ein Guggenberger", "I am a Guggenberger") is a quotation of U.S. President John F. Kennedy, in a speech given on June 26, 1963, in West Berlin. -- then I understand such as not appropriate as opinions shall not be misinterpreted by others, so other people shall not have that much "freedom" to make false statements. In that sense, with respect to opinions, I do not see why Hyperbola cannot be free culture and include the Emacs Manual and GCC manual and GFDL with invariant sections. Jean
