example of such problems : I write a tutorial for a Linux formation. I
want to make my learners read some HOWTO's. I give them the HOWTO in the
original translated form (translated by the official team). This tutorial
is NOT free

Is this allowed by the licence? May I read any HOWTO licence to know what
to do.

I think R.S. is right. linuxdoc must be free
