Hi,
My personal opinions aside, Olaf Schmidt pointed out that we have all the
KDE user docs available online at docs.kde.org, and with a little tweaking
of the KDE help:/ ioslave (used by khelpcenter), we could add a feature to
do the following: If the requested doc is not installed, ask the user
whether to look on docs.kde.org for it.

With this feature, you could put all docs into non-free, and the only people
who would have trouble would be those who object to the GFDL *and* don't
have an Internet connection. This would save us doing any relicensing. It
would have the disadvantage that you'd have to provide a vendor patch,
since KDE 3.x is feature-frozen, so the feature won't get upstreamed.

What do you think?

Regards,
Philip
