Hello,

This post is primarily addressed to Ed Merks as one of the authors of the book.

I'm working on a documentation generator for Ecore models and documentation for the Ecore model itself. I would like to use content from the EMF book or some other authoritative source to document the model. For this I need authors' permission, I believe. Please advise how I can obtain such a permission. or maybe point to a comprehensive and authoritative documentation which I can use under EPL 2.0 license. Essentially my goal is to "translate" essential parts of the book to Ecore documentation.
