Hi, <donning_asbestos_underwear>
Apparently, the folks at Debian are planning on pulling the plug on all Documentation bundled with their distribution on Linux that comes under GNU Free Documentation Licence promoted by FSF Debian's objections stem mainly from the GFDL's allowance for the copyright holder to specify invariant sections (text which cannot be altered) and cover texts (text which must appear literally on the cover of printed publications). They feel this makes the license non-free because this prevents others from modifying all of the text. Even if the original author has no invariant sections, those who add to the document later on, who must keep it under the same license, may choose to add invariant sections.
