Thank you for your answer,
to my regret the copy paste option and
creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/ does not help. The simple reason
is it would not enjoy readers of a german text to find an english
installation manual. creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/ is
compatible with Debian Free Software Guidelines (DFSG), it is allowed
"to Remix — to adapt the work".
The problem is, that a translation is not just a remix but an act of
creative originality and therefore with an own copyright. So I (and may
be others) need a (written) permission to translate the installation
manual. Better for sage to "spread the world" would be a general
allowance to translate the installation manual.
I am only speaking of the installation manual! Because, as I pointed out
in another mail, such a description of installation steps do have a
degree of (creative) freedom close to zero!
