Interested in potentially adapting these materials - curious about copyright status #2

Hi! I'm part of the cloud.gov team at 18F in the US General Services Administration. cloud.gov is based on Cloud Foundry, and we're looking into improving our training materials for users of cloud.gov.

I'd be curious if we could adapt and build upon some of these materials as a helpful base, but I see that you have an all rights reserved copyright notice. Do you think might eventually relicense this project with a license that would allow reuse/adaptation by other teams?

As 18F we have a policy of releasing our work publicly as much as possible (which in the public domain since we're federal government staff), so we would make our adaptations/improvements usable by others as well.

(Of course, I'd also understand if you don't have plans to change this copyright notice!)

Thanks!

Hey there Britta,

We are working to get these materials open sourced, with a different license, in a new and improved manner. Stay tuned for more details.
