The licensing wiki says that the IEEE license is a “good” documentation license. However, with the 2017 release, IEEE switched to this license: | The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers and The Open Group, | have given us permission to reprint portions of their documentation. | | In the following statement, the phrase ``this text'' refers to portions of | the system documentation. | | Portions of this text are reprinted and reproduced in electronic form in | the Linux man-pages project, from IEEE Std 1003.1-2017, Standard for | Information Technology -- Portable Operating System Interface (POSIX), The | Open Group Base Specifications Issue 7, 2018 Edition, Copyright (C) 2018 | by The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, Inc and The Open | Group. In the event of any discrepancy between these versions and the | original IEEE and The Open Group Standard, the original IEEE and The Open | Group Standard is the referee document. The original Standard can be | obtained online at http://www.opengroup.org/unix/online.html . | | This notice shall appear on any product containing this material. <https://mirrors.edge.kernel.org/pub/linux/docs/man-pages/man-pages-posix/man-pages-posix-2017-a.tar.gz> This license no longer permits modified redistribution, as far as I can see. Is this still an acceptable documentation license as far as Fedora is concerned?
