There can never be assurance; but it would be a strange project indeed that turned down obvious improvements to its documentation. > Title: "Helpfile Senior Editor" or "Helpfile Managing Editor". We're not big on titles round here; it's kind-of merit-based. As I see it, there seems to be an organisation for doing help files developing without any prompting from us, and that's great :-) Everyone should pitch in. > What licence is the helpfile under? Does MPL+GPL+LGPL really apply here? > Or a suitable (as open as possible) Open Documentation Licence? That's a long-running question. At the moment, I think the best thing to say is that contributors should expect other people, including commercial companies, to steal, munge, rewrite and rip off their work, and be happy about it ;-) More seriously, companies using Mozilla cooperate; we've never had a nasty "no, my changes to your docs are my copyright" situation. This fuzzy legal position will improve eventually. Hopefully. Gerv
