Meaning if you want to gratuitously toss in a copy of the manual on an eBay sale,
it’s ok with me as long as you state it’s for free. No you can’t sell a digital archive
of manuals and say it includes a free copy of this documentation. You must give
it away with equipment.
I think you get the spirit of the copyright; it takes a lot of hours to scan and
replicate a manual. I just want this used in the spirit in which is it given.
