I thought that since none of the documentation is being distributed with
the product released by the PMC, i.e. the AOO suite, we could use materials
with licenses that would not usually be allowed. The Guides are dual
licensed as GPL 3 (category X)  or CC-by Category B, binary only). I'm not
sure what "binary" means for documentation but distributing an odt file
does not seem to meet that criterion. Am I confused?
