[Libro_SIG] Re: [OSGeo-Edu] gis book license

[Miguel R. Luaces]

Dear all,

I am a university professor and I will use the spanish GIS book as a base
for the material in my subjects. Hence, I expect the book not to have a "non
derivative" license.

Regarding the other aspects of the license, I am neutral.

Best regards,
  Miguel
