Tom, Thanks for helping here. Just curious about your reference. If we use a word “some”, should there be somewhere that has a definition of “some”? For example, something like.. a scope of “some” in this statement refer to “trademark agreement on using openstack logo”.

HI Anne and Tom, and everyone here in this mailing list,
I do have one question, actually I am relaying a question from someone else in Korea regarding publication of documents. A professor in Korea did translate the entire openstack security-guide document, and he wants to publish translated version as a book with some price tag. He wants to know if he can talk with OpenStack Foundation regarding this commercial publication of OpenStack Document.
I told him Document has Creative Common License, and he just needs to follow whatever CC license says. However, if possible, we would like to have some help from you guys =.
First, we are not open source license experts. It is a bit tricky to know what CC license exactly means when someone wants to publish “translated version” of a openstack document. Second, he wants to have an opinion form openstack foundation about publication.
If you have experienced a similar situation with this one, could you give us some hints or advise? Thank you.
