Howdy folks, First I want to thank Jean Weber for making this email possible.
Recently I had need to work on a document regarding AOO for a disk project I'm working on and I wanted to use an existing resource from the ODF Authors group, specifically the custom template used to generate the user guides the group produces. That template was (is) dual licensed GPL/CC-BY-SA 3.0. What I wanted however was the option to license the derived work under he Apache license - so using the original template as, ah a template, I proceeded to make some changes, but in the end the text which describes how to use it was predominantly from Jean. I just got the email from her giving me permission to re-license my updated file and I will make this new template available to the project dual licensed as Apache 2.0 and CC-By-SA, which will allow anyone basing a final work on the template to license as either or both. So, a few quick questions for the group here. Easy one first- the template includes a contact email for reporting any problems or suggestions, the original listed the ODF Authors discuss mailing list and I would assume for this new one he right answer is this list, yes? Location - since I'm still a bit out of the loop is there a spot on either wiki where folks would want this? Copyright - The original template is set to default to a copyright for ODF Authors, I assume (oh such a bad word) that here the copyright would be left to the author(s) and not the ASF or maybe so, or maybe so sometimes.. ?? So - the template is ready to go and I'll wait for response(s) to those easy questions and look to post it up when next I'm tethered to the global tracking system next ;) //drew
