Oh, boy, another windmill to tilt at.  *sigh*

I believe it is not the intention of Red Hat to restrict those
documents, but I could be wrong about these ones.  Could be.

I'm not a subject matter expert (SME); my main role in that product line
was driving the idea and then the activities to get the 3000+ pages of
content converted from FrameMaker-produced-HTML into DocBook XML.  So, I
know the documentation set far better than the material covered by
it. :)
