wraith808, you are right of course :)

Also there are different kind of documentation used or demanded in software development; some of those are useless IMHO, so I applaud "the agile method" for trying to dispose of them.

Assuming they can get away with it.  ;D

One of the biggest criticisms of FOSS development is its general lack of comprehensive documentation.  :-\

Yeah. But it's usually considered a glitch when that happens.  :P

Hmmm... Just thinking... I've heard of people packaging up FOSS (GPL) then selling it. According to what I know about the GPL, content isn't GPL, so documentation wouldn't be GPL'd.

Just a random thought.

housetier:
I think the GPL applies to a WORK, whatever that is.

And if the GPL doesn't apply, in most countries copyright law will apply which usually grants even less rights than GPL would.
