<h2>New Version of the GFDL</h2>
|
|
|
|
The <a href="http://www.fsf.org/">Free Software Foundation</a> is working on a new version of the GNU
|
|
Free Documentation License. The new version of the license clarifies
|
|
some wording with respect to invariant sections and front matter, and
|
|
places limits on their size and the ways they can be used.
|
|
|
|
<p>We recommend for compatibility reasons the
|
|
<a href="http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/fdl.html">GNU FDL</a> or
|
|
the <a href="http://opencontent.org/opl.shtml">OPL v1.0</a> with
|
|
options A and B not applied. OPL v2 does not meet our requirements.
|
|
Some authors using the GFDL may find that the newest version adds too
|
|
many restrictions, especially on non technical sections content or cover
|
|
pages content. However, the LDP considers licensing to be the author's
|
|
choice, not the LDP's. We have some general guidelines about licensing,
|
|
because of our need to freely distribute documents, but we do not
|
|
require any specific license. Our
|
|
<a href="http://tldp.org/manifesto.html">Manifesto</a> specifies the characteristics a license
|
|
must fulfill. LDP authors are free to choose the license they want, as
|
|
long as the basic guidelines from our manifesto are respected.
|
|
|
|
<p>The LDP will remain neutral in license choice or license version
|
|
questions, as long as the LDP manifesto is respected. Therefore, we suggest
|
|
anyone using the GFDL reads
|
|
<a href="http://www.fsf.org/licenses/fdl.html">http://www.fsf.org/licenses/fdl.html
|
|
</a> and makes their own decision about whether or not to adopt the new
|
|
version of the GFDL. That page includes a diff which shows the differences
|
|
between each version of the GFDL.
