Yes, the problem was mainly those invariant sections. For a technical article, 
maybe you don't use any invariant sections (so it will be completely free), 
but if another person decides to work in this text, he/she can add content 
with invariant sections (so that is not free acording to Debian free soft 
guidelines).

In my very humble opinion, FDL is better for a _opinion_ essay (then you use 
invariant sections to leave your point of view unaltered), than for a 
technichal book. In that case, GPL fits my needs (again, from my point of 
view).

Best regards.
