First, It needn't be an FSF project at first.  It would start as an
independent bunch or work anyway, and then we'll see.  But free
software of course.  And secondly, tbook is free source, too, and
its licence is less restrictive than the GPL as far as I can see, so
this shouldn't be a problem.  Otherwise, I can change tbook's
licence.  ;-)

Tschö,
Torsten.
