Hi Mathieu,
I have no problem re-licensing the book at all. I assume, Ananth will
confirm soon from his part. He also assured me that he will start working
on the meta version soon.
I was responsible for creating the draft of the handbook and I have the
draft text version with me. I guess, the finalized text version is with
Ananth as he did the rest of the work of designing and finalizing the
handbook. I guess, he will share the text version soon, so that it can be
translated into other languages, including Indic languages.
Regards,
Bodhisattwa

Hey Peter, thank you for the incitive to go on.
Actually, I didn't watched the license before, but it's CC-by-sa-4.0, so
as it is, I couldn't copy/paste it into a Wikimedia wiki, as most of
them are CC-by-3.0, and the other licenses used on some wiki are even
less possibly compatible. I have little doubt Ananth and Bodhisattwa
will grant us persmission to also publish the document under the
CC-by-sa-3.0, but we still need their consent.
More importantly, my implicit questioning was "were could I find the
original working document of from which this PDF was generated from?".
Sure we can always make copy/paste from the PDF, but having the working
document is often far more useful as a base to wikify.
Thank you again to Ananth and Bodhisattwa for the document, I hope we
will be able to make a wiki version together, and thank you Peter for
pointing the license issue and the lake of explicit demand for the
working document.
Cheers

It is CC-by-sa. Of course you can.

Great, thank you.
Could we also launch a Wiki version that would allow localizations, for
example on Meta or Wikibooks?
Cheers
