That is odd. That mentioned address was the first to edit the page (= create it) and it seems that http://cpc1-norw1-3-0-cust121.pete.cable.ntl.com/ is a web site of yours. Do you run an open proxy, or do NTL bounce people around addresses?
I am running Navaho 2.10 Proxy software
I think it's a bit dodgy to change the licence without asking after others have contributed to it. Even so, I don't want a document that claims to be FDL'd on the site because it apparently prevents me taking backup copies using openssh. For a list of concerns about the FDL, please see http://people.debian.org/%7Esrivasta/Position_Statement.xhtml
I read some of this long page and cannot find any problems with using openssh. The only problems are with DRM (which I cannot imagine ALUG using in a million years), invariant sections (there are non of these in webpage), and need for a machine readable form (HTML is machine readable and a simple link to original can be provided).
Please use a free software licence
Which? Why not use a different free document license (like the OPL), in fact while on the subject why not make the whole website follow a free license. Or does the ALUG site follow the GPL in which case Stuart should remove the FDL.
