A thought came to me as I was waking up this morning, so it might not be the best thought-out example, but I thought I'd toss it out and see what people think.
It seems to me that a secondary section can turn into a non-secondary section in a modified document. Suppose that I want to write a document about the Free Software Foundation. I might want to take parts of the Emacs manual and turn it into a chapter on Emacs. However, since the Emacs manual is under the GFDL with invariant sections, I would need to include the GNU Manifesto as an invariant section. But the primary topic of my document is the Free Software Foundation, and so the GNU Manifesto can't be considered a secondary section since it falls very much into my document's overall subject, so it can't be an invariant section. So there's no legal way for me (short of asking the copyright holders for a different license) to include a chapter derived from the Emacs manual into my document about the Free Software Foundation. -- Hubert Chan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> - http://www.uhoreg.ca/ PGP/GnuPG key: 1024D/124B61FA Fingerprint: 96C5 012F 5F74 A5F7 1FF7 5291 AF29 C719 124B 61FA Key available at wwwkeys.pgp.net.
