ok, cool

for the last point, hows this:
"Note on manual pricing : All manuals have a 2 euro ($2.50 US Dollar)

Manuals can always be downloaded for free from FLOSS Manuals. Currently
there is no commission available for sales generated from hosted web
shops."

as a last paragraph line before the contact information
