For the definition: loony, adj - disagreeing with Craig.
For one, I'm not arguing for no restrictions on modifications of docs.
Just the same as we require for other software. I ignore the next bit
of your message, irrelevant to me.
and clause 4 applies too, which explicitly allows a
modification-by-patch-only
restriction. errata sheets are "patches" for documentation.
The licence must explicitly permit distribution of software built from
modified sources, so we must be allowed to integrate errata into the
"built" version of the docs during the making of the .deb.
