We could have contributors include a statement with their contribution that they have the right to contribute what they're contributing and that they give permission for it to be licensed under CC-BY-SA 3.0 and/or GNU GPL and permission for us to move to some other copy-left licensing arrangement if in the future a majority of DIG participants vote that it is in the best interest of the project.

It's pretty well fleshed out at the Book/Part/Chapter Levels, but some of the chapters need more thought put into the structure of sections, subsections, etc.  I would like to have volunteers pick a chapter or two, read up on the topic(s), and suggest how they think that chapter should be broken down into sections (within sections, within sections as deeply as needed).  We've already got some input on the cataloging chapter and that's attached too.  If you have time in the next hour, please take a look at the attachments and give them some thought.
