[Infrastructures] Re: Infrastructures.Org rework

Hello World,

Why not bring the documents under the GNU Free Documentation License?
http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/fdl.html

It will allow you to publish a book based on the documents, and basically do
whatever you said you wanted to do with it. It won't stop anyone else from
doing the same, though. So if you are of the opinion that if anyone is going
to make money of this, it'll be you, then it's not the license to use.

I must say that I quite like the idea of a community-edited repository on
this subject. I'm currently designing/building a Unix infrastructure here,
and I got several useful ideas off the infrastructures website. I'd be quite
willing to supply some patterns/antipatterns to the mix (my employer
allowing, of course).

Cheers,
  Menno Willemse
