yes exactly...we do this for FM now...if you visit either remix :
http://www.flossmanuals.net/remix

or the Objavi publishing engine :
http://objavi.flossmanuals.net

then you can get material in pdf. html, odt, epub etc and they all have
attribution

booki will model this but take it a bit further since in FM we use one
license (gpl)...to manage a repository with multiple licenses takes more
mechanics...
