It would be distributed under the GFDL, like all the other official
Emacs books (the elisp intro, the emacs manual, and the elisp manual).

A clear idea of what it should aim to do.  I think there is clearly room
for an "Emacs book" (e.g. something less intimidating/referency than the
Emacs manual, and which could cover packages not included in Emacs).
