Anne,

Thanks for your super fast response. Our Legal team won't give me 
approval unless the licensing information is crystal clear. I'll see 
what they say with this email from you as to whether that's enough for them.

Just to clarify, the clouddocs-maven-plugin docs are the DocBook based 
ones, right? All new and updated content is going into the RST-based docs?
