Okay, I've downloaded a copy.

I didn't realize that you had processed what you downloaded.  Very
nice.

| Before we try these out, we should decide whether to convert to
another markup language or stick with HTML. We'd eventually want
to add a lot of stuff if we can get the permission to do so, and
HTML is somewhat unwieldy to write by hand.

I agree.  I love Org mode, but Markdown is nice, too.  The only
drawback of not using HTML directly is that it limits what we can
express.  For my own blog, I write in S-expressions that map
directly to HTML for this reason.  But for the Cookbook, I'll bet
that Markdown or Org mode would be fine.

| Wow, good catch! I had missed that altogether. So each
individual page is LGPL but the compilation is "all rights
reserved". Is that legally possible? In any case, it'd be clearest
to get permission from the editors as you suggest.

IANAL, as they say.  But I'm happy to follow their intent.

| In the tar file there's a "SchematicsEditorsGroup" page. The
members from the latest revision of that page are: Brent Fulgham,
Bruce Butterfield, Francisco Solsona, Gordon Weakliem, Jens Axel
Soegaard, Neil Van Dyke, Noel Welsh, Anton Van Straaten.

Excellent.  If we get no response from Anton, we can try the rest
of them.
