I was thinking of something similar, like: 2. Redistribution or reproduction in compiled form (...) as a means of allowing anyone to copy, print, reuse, or do anything else they find fit with the documents, as long as they don't expect any sort of warranty and they don't claim they did the original. Perhaps, we could combine the "reproduction" stuff with "in print"? Or does one of them make the other redundant? - Giorgos To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-doc" in the body of the message
