Now, you don't *really* want people to call you that, do you? :-) The Fedora documents *are* FDL, at least the ones that will be contributed. The copyright is held, of course, by the author. As for the guides on which Tammy is working, I don't know, but I suspect they will also be FDL, to fit the aims of the project, although that's purely conjecture on my part. I would suspect that Red Hat has a company policy on holding copyright on work produced on company time and payroll, which of course makes perfect sense. That doesn't keep it from being FDL. Again, just speculation since I don't work there. If anyone has documents they would like reviewed, I'm available to help. I can either (1) review for content and make suggestions, (2) put the document into proper format using the approved tool set (Emacs, PSGML, xmlto, etc.), or (3) a combination thereof. I got a submission from one contributor not too long ago and did #1, but haven't received any revisions from him to date. I have a starter tutorial, representing what I think is proper format and XML tagging, at: http://frields.com/paul/fedora/docs/updfstab-en.tar.bz2 -- Paul W. Frields, RHCE
