Right. But you could link to that page. Or contact the author and
see if he could be willing to give it us under ALv2:

Actually, CC-BY stuff can be used, in some sense.
http://www.apache.org/legal/resolved.html#category-a classifies it
(under the name "CC-A") as a category A license, i.e., "similar in terms
to the Apache License 2.0" and allows it to be "included within Apache
products" provided a NOTICE file (or section?) is included.
But, as Rob suggested, getting the author to agree with relicensing
under the very similar Apache License would be best. If we can't, I
don't see problems in reusing this work so long as we include a notice
crediting the author.
Regards,
Andrea.
The problem is that like most OOA/ODFA works, the Math Guide is a
collaborative effort, with 8 or 10 contributors listed on the Page 2
credits (including me). Even finding them all might be very difficult;
some of the names I don't even recognize, and I've been hanging out with
the doc folks since 2.0 days. Sorry.
