Tammy, et.al. I am in the process of converting all of the XFree86 documentation to DocBook. One of the things that I have been asked to provide is a StyleGuide very similar to the documentation guide that is now part of the Fedora project. I would like to use much of the Fedora Documentation Guide that describes the tag usage in the XFree86 StyleGuide. The license covering the Documentation Guide is the FDGL. This does not allow me to excerpt the part I would need and discard the rest. If you change the license to GPL, then I cannot use any of it (XFree86 does not allow GPL). Rather they use the X-License. This license is very close to the MIT-License. Daniel Veillard has dual licensed libxml2 and libxslt so that we can distribute them for document generation. We at XFree86 are committed to open source, but we cannot use GPL. Is there a way we can excerpt part of what the Fedora Project has already generated?
