Hi,
Most of my reading these days is done on my laptop[1]. This includes
both tech (docs and tutorial types) as well as non-tech books.
So, I was pleasantly surprised when I saw 'diveintopython' listed in my
yum search listings (I was searching for comic book readers).
I like the idea of being able to 'yum install' or 'yum search', or even
'yum groupinsatall' books (or any CC content for that matter, eg: music,
video ..etc). If packaging such content is encouraged, I'd gladly
package most of the CC content I've accumulated.
Does Fedora has a policy or guideline about these things ?
We do:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines#Code_Vs_Content
The rule of thumb is that it must enhance the Fedora user experience.
With that said, if there is interest in doing this on a large scale, it
might be worth considering making a separate Fedora CC Content
Repository. I'll defer that decision to FESCo.
