Well, i think they grant the right to distribute it in electornic form, ity is just for the printed version that they don't want to give permission, thing that i consider normal for a book publisher. It still is DFSG non-free, but then i guess the DFSG was not written with these things in mind, and clarification of what we want to allow or not is needed. Friendly, Sven Luther
