5 I know from Daniel that DW takes the exclusive rights to publish the
6 articles for the first X months (I believe it was 6 months, but don't take
7 my word on it). We are allowed to republish those articles later (as we've
8 done with for instance an article about CVS), even in the form of a GuideXML
9 document.

11 Perhaps we can add all articles to our own repository? If we put a note on
12 top stating
13 <note>
14 This article was originally published at the IBM DeveloperWorks website.
15 </note>
16 and we get the agreement of the authors we should be all right.
