Is the pound documentation (faq, man pages, examples, etc) licensed under 
the GFDL (GNU Free Documentation License)?

For example, when others propose patches (i.e. new directives), what are 
the restrictions on modifying the documentation and redistributing it with 
patches? It appears that the documentation currently is posted as 
copyrighted, without mentioning permission for modification. I believe 
this would be a derivative work/copyright infringement issue, otherwise.

Thanks
