[jira] Commented: (LEGAL-69) Question about specific distribution permissions for Docbook files in the Apache OFBiz project

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LEGAL-69?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12888722#action_12888722 ] 

Henri Yandell commented on LEGAL-69:
------------------------------------

Agreed. No GFDL and the indication in the implementation files and the from the author himself is that it's permissive. The OASIS license also appears to be permissive.

Closing the issue.
