+'''FLOSS Manuals''' is an international network producing collaborative {{tag|free software}} manuals.  It was created by [[Adam Hyde]], who has been the main driving force behind the project.  Currently the active [[:Category:Wiki Language|language]] communities include [http://en.flossmanuals.net/ English], [http://fr.flossmanuals.net/ French], [http://fi.flossmanuals.net/ Finnish], Farsi and Dutch FLOSS Manuals.  Manuals are usually published under the GPL license, and therefore they are available for anyone to copy and modify.

+FLOSS Manuals isn't based only on online collaboration.  Actually many of the manuals are written in [http://www.booksprints.net/ Booksprints], intensive sessions of a few days, where writers are collaborating live.  In Booksprints, entire {{tag|books}} are often produced in a few days.

+[http://www.booki.cc/ Booki] is a collaborative authoring platform that has in many ways been designed based on the experiences of the FLOSS Manuals project.  Originally, FLOSS Manuals used a modified version of [[TWiki]].  Booki is optimized for writing long texts such as free software manuals or [[:Category:Wiki Creative Commons|Creative Commons]] text books, instead of a large amount of short encyclopedia articles.  Booki is also able to produce {{tag|PDF}} and {{tag|ePub}} books.  It also has features of a microblogging site and is being integrated with the [http://status.net/ Status.net] microblogging platform.
