First of all, let me say that I'm not anyone with any official standing w= ith the FreeBSD project that can give you a definitive answer to your enquiry= =2E =20 However, let me point you towards the copyright/license on the FreeBSD Handbook: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/books/handbook/LEGALNOTICE.html Which is a variant on the well known BSD family of open-source licenses (= as you might expect). Essentially this says that you are free to make whate= ver use of the material in the handbook, and the source code it is derived fr= om, subject only to the proviso that you maintain the same copyright notice a= nd disclaimer in derived works. Simply providing a link back to the origina= l copyright notice on the FreeBSD site should be sufficient. Should you have further concerns to be addressed, might I suggest that th= e most relevant group of people to contact is the FreeBSD Documentation Project via their mailing list: freebsd-doc@freebsd.org Ever since I first encountered it, I've been convinced that the FreeBSD Handbook and related documentation is an outstandingly good example of ho= w to do such things, and I am glad to see that it is attracting attention outside its core constituency of FreeBSD users.
