<p dir="ltr">Can you be more specific about this licencing change? As far as I've read so far, RHEL7 guides are CC-BY-SA 3.0 - <a href="https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/">https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/</a> - which makes them fair game for adaptation and redistribution as long as you give attribution.</p>
<p dir="ltr">The docbook sources are a different issue, but IMO there's an argument to be made for sharing them given the increased collaboration potential.</p>
