Good question. I took care to not put any private documents but a lot
of the files there are from various places on the web and bugzilla.
Personally I have no problem if anyone uses them. Anyone here to
illuminate what is the right thing to do, I mean legally. Should a
file be removed if it belongs to some xyz project with some licensing
scheme requiring <insert various obstacles>.
