The manual is currently under the GPL licence, so any modifications which you distribute should be under the GPL too. I do not think that this means that your product falls under the GPL too, but I'm not a licencing wizard :) The modifications would be places on our public CVS server and available to everyone according to the license. My main issue is replacing/removing phrases, words, and example code. while our product uses Zend and some PHP extensions, it is not PHP and should not be refereed to in our manual. I don't want current authors of the PHP manual, who did it for PHP, to get upset because their text was modified/removed for a non-PHP product.Thanks.
