[Mono-docs-list] Monkeyguide license?

[Hector E. Gomez Morales]

Well I thought that monkeyguide was too in MIT X11 license like monodoc,
seeing this situation I think it will be better that all the
documentation is under one license be it X11 or GPL FDA. I have some
unfinished docs for monkeyguide so it will be good for me to know the
consensus on this.
