I met Paul Cutler yesterday and he explained the license issue to me. I'm a little concerned, though, that the relicensing shouldn't block any improvements to the g-u-g for an indefinite period.
One way of working around this would be to completely rewrite the Nautilus backgrounds section in place, with a source code comment at the start of the section saying that that section is dual-licensed under the FDL and the CC-whatever 3.0 or any later version. That way the whole guide is still licensed under the FDL, but you can copy and paste the text to the new help when its structure is ready. What I was trying to explain in my previous comment was that because we can't test the help both directly and realistically, we will rarely, if ever, "see[] a significant number of users struggling with [a] particular issue" in the help. We'll occasionally see one person dive into a particular area of the help, and have a problem, and we'll have to make our best guess as to whether other people would have the same problem. -- Nautilus "Changing Backgrounds" help is tl;dr and doesn't cross-reference desktop background https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/394335 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
