Our thanks to the authors, Noni and Mala Kumar and the illustrators, Angie and Upesh for making this possible.
Update:
Thanks to Philipp for the write up. He goes on to add:
… the NonCommercial option makes things unnecessarily complicated, but since they are part of a larger commercial publisher, I suspect it was the mother company’s fear of the unknown (Share What?) that meant it would be non-commercial or non-creative commons. And choosing pdf as the only file format for publishing them makes remixing a bit complicated (in fact, so complicated that Gautam himself was unable to remove the “all rights reserved” disclaimer from the books – he added the creative commons blurb at the end). So, there is room for improvement, but more importantly it’s another step in the right direction – and yet another project we can point to that has found a way to make open licenses work.
We’d be happy to hear from everyone on what formats to post this in and how to make this easier to re-use and remix.
Update:
We also have some free books for download here.
