Gary,

I said "I think your material is still a great asset, and a great
contribution even with the current license."

I think Arnulf and I were explaining our licensing ideals for training
materials.  I imagine OSGeo would still be pleased to promote the use of
your materials under the currently license, though that is really up
to the Education committee.

Best regards,
