Hi everyone!!

This is a thought me and a teacher of mine at high school are pondering about currently. My teacher got a cd full of html versions of O'Reilly books from a computer conf. he recently visited. He and I were kind of wondering if it would be totally legal to put all of these html books on our linux http server, so that anyone would be able to reference them when needed. So far, I don't really see anything illegal in that, but if it was legal, wouldn't that help our book fund, because then those that couldn't afford O'Reilly books could be able to reference from them from a server??

Thanks for any input anyone would have on this subject!!
