I am not sure if this is the right mailing list for that kind of questions. This mailing list name is a bit misleading, so sometimes people (me included) make wrong assumptions about it. Here's the mailing list description[1]: > A list for coordinating GNU/Linux freeing efforts across multiple > projects - fully free distros, linux-libre, IceCat, etc. See also > https://libreplanet.org/wiki/Group:FreedSoftware. The Drm-elimination-crew[2] mailing list might be more suited because it is related to the "Defective by Design" campaign, which also has list of places where people can find DRM free books[3]. People might also better know specifics of book publishing there, though the project seems to focus more on where to find these books rather than how to publish. As for things related to this mailing list, people might also be able to package books in FSDG distributions but it might be better to ask first more specific mailing lists (like defective by design) as there is a lot of ways to publish books under free licenses and some of them are quite different (for instance you might want or not want an editor, want to sell hard copies too, or not, etc) and they might either know about it or know places that know about them. In the worse case it might be possible to compare options yourself starting with the defective by design list of publishers.
