Hi Mihai,

we got a lot of lessons from contributors over the time. Unfortunately,
then we did not ask about the license or consent to place the lectures
under a suitable commons license. So, for quite a lot of lectures we
just have to use the general contributing rules for the KDE source base
(after all they were placed inside the subversion repository, or back
then in CVS).

For the generic lectures, the author is Havaard (original KTouch author,
used a script to generate them from the gnu aspell dictionaries), so
these are definitely free for the taking.

My recommendation: take the lectures and don't overthink the licensing
issues. The people who sent me the lectures were just very nice people
wanting to help others - in that spirit I'd say the lectures are
open-source licensed.

Just my two cents...
