Hello all!
Is the information on the UM Website copyrighted material..? I was wanting to
use the information on it (NOT the HTML coding) to use as a base for a site I'm
working on.
Thanks,

Thank you Ricky. I didn't see that on the site. I will be sure to accredit the

Thomas,
No worries, it was fairly easy to overlook, and I wasn't even aware of any
licensing information displayed on the main page until your question
prompted me to go on a search. Glad to know it's there, and that it is a
share-alike license.

It is a site for my "Wine" version of the manual. I was going to use some text
layout. For example, on the "get involved" webpage, the "Authors" subsection of
the page has a layout of:

Hi Thomas,
I'm not sure how this relates to what Ricky told you (or what you're
doing) but if you view the source of the home page of the website, you
see this at the top:

Hi,
when I had a discussion with canonical about the share-alike I put the
footer on to the area I use it on
http://forum.phillw.net/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=29
that, i was told, was more than is actually needed, but I prefer to give
credit where credit is due.
Regards,
Phill.

Phill,
That is why I asked. I would like to give everyone who deserves credit, credit.
Thanks,

Hi, Thomas.
To clarify, the content of the site is under the CC license that Ricky
mentioned. The PHP code behind the site is licensed as AGPL as
Patrick discovered.
If you're copying the content (text/layout), then you'll use the CC license.

Just so you all understand what i wanted to use, here is a link to the website,
hosted on Google Drive, as a Test Site. Not all of the pages are complete, but
none of the links are broken. :)
