RE: Gnome Desktop 2.0

["Zlotow, Mary Ann" <Zlotow cdnet cod edu>]

Thank you for responding so quickly. My dean and our bookstore are literally
sending me daily e-mails, because I have not yet chosen materials for this
course. What I would like to do is take the materials on the
www.gnome.org/learn web site, specifically Chapters 1-9 in the Desktop 2.0
User Guide, and have them bound in the bookstore as the text for the GNOME
portion of the course. First, does this violate any copyrights? Second, do
you have a specific date when the updates to this portion of the web site
will be finished? That way, I can find out if the bookstore can work in this
time-frame. Thank you.

Hi Mary Ann,

In the next couple of weeks I'll be updating the User Guide at
www.gnome.org/learn, and this will include updated screenshots. The
screenshots will use default GNOME settings, which are not necessarily
the same as the RedHat settings.
