[Fhsst-physics] Resources you can use

[Mark Horner]

Hi everyone

This might be most useful for Andy, Edwin and Gerald but its worth 
taking a look. We were contacted by a project writing a free Physics 
textbook. They are using a slightly different license to use but we 
agreed on releasing content to each other so we can use any of their 
stuff if its useful. They started by transcribing a book from 1906 which 
is now in the public domain. It has a fair amount of stuff on heat and 
properties of matter and mechanics.

If you are working on a section and are open to some content please take 
a look at what they have got at:

http://stary2-02.lbl.gov/Introductory_Physics.pdf

I made a pdf of their book in its latest form - they haven't released 
one themselves yet. Their project page is:

https://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/introphysics

You can just cut and paste anything thats useful and they'll release it 
under the GFDL for us.

Another place to look in on WikiBooks - we use the same license so if 
you find something useful on WikiBooks you can use it in our books.

Hope things are going well.

Cheers,

Mark
