The second license on the 3.x docs is cc-by version 3.0. This is the
license that was cleared by my inquiry to legal @ as long as they did
not appear in an "Official Release. the license that the Base PDF
carries is cc-by-NC-SA which is a very controversial license as it does
not really define what non-commercial use is and courts around the world
have interpreted it differently.

Given that we could be at risk by having it on the mwiki and definitely
should not have it in our repository.

Keith

I thought that since none of the documentation is being distributed with
the product released by the PMC, i.e. the AOO suite, we could use materials
with licenses that would not usually be allowed. The Guides are dual
licensed as GPL 3 (category X)  or CC-by Category B, binary only). I'm not
sure what "binary" means for documentation but distributing an odt file
does not seem to meet that criterion. Am I confused?

Digro;

I do not believe that this should be distributed from the  mwiki.It is
Licensed under the cc-by-nc-sa 3.0 which is a category X license.

The other you linked to is the wiki version of the Getting started guide
chapter 8 which we already have.I appears that we will have to take that
odt file as a starting point and write the rest from scratch.

As always other options are both appreciated and encouraged.

The file is here:  https://wiki.openoffice.org/w/images/0/02/Base_tutorial.pdf
Just uploaded it a short while ago, since it was missing.

The SQL that belongs to the file is also there: 
https://wiki.openoffice.org/w/images/1/1d/Base_Tutorial_SQL_code.txt

Both files mentioned on our wiki: https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Base

   There is an excellent guide, though not in the usual style, written by Mariano Casanova about 10 years ago..
   [https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/images/0/02/Base_tutorial.pdf](url)
   Though it is currently available on the TDF site, it was written in the OpenOffice.org days, as is obvious in the front matter.
