This is an interesting point in case. He shares this idea with rms, who uses the GFDL for a similar goal. *Huge* parts of the community do not share that idea. There's a reason Debian, for example, sees the GFDL as a non-free license. A number of more and less prominent *gcc developers* (people who assign their copyrights to rms' FSF) share this particular concern and think that text *should* be under the same kind of free licenses as software. So be careful with statements about representing these people! MfG Kai _______________________________________________ Ietf mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf
