For more information see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free-culture_movement#Skepticism_from_the_FSFIn 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.Because they are not under Free Culture licences, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Definition_of_Free_Cultural_Works No need to re-go through the arguments, the FSF simple don't believe that all their (or anyone else's) works should be under Free Culture licences and it is isn't a requirement of the FSDG. Ask the FSF if you don't believe me.
