JFYI to the group, the point was resolved after Hoyt wrote the paragraph
above, with text from the guy who is a lawyer. :)

http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-docs-list/2004-August/msg00139.html

Should we add that text to a References <section> in every document that
wants to refer to sources of information outside of the guide itself?

That References <section> would include listing other Fedora docs, but
would not specify any non-Fedora URL or project name, instead suggesting
a Google search.

IMO, this is also more useful to our readers -- our docs aren't
populated with links liable to get outdated or be difficult to 
maintain, and readers get access to popular and useful sources of
information.
