Hi List!

As the GFDL has some problems being seen as not really a free license (e.g. by the Debian project see's it that way, as far as I understand it), I'm thinking about changing the license of the User's Guide from GFDL to GPL.

Any of the former authors of the User's Guide having any objections for or against changing the license?

Or is the license intentionally used for some reason I just don't see?

If you are one of the former authors of the User's Guide, please give response in any case, if it's ok for you or not, as I need an ok from any former author about this change.

Regards, ULFL
