Regardless of the license, there is still the basic principle of fair
use under U.S. copyright law[1].

Since this is for educational, non-profit purposes, and since the
original material is being distributed for free, I can't see how there
would be any problem[3].  Of course, one could also be nice and ask
the author for permission to use these few pages as the basis for some
handbook pages, but I don't really think they have the right to
refuse.

Hello,

If you read the first five pages from the PDF in
http://dev.joomla.org/component/option,com_jd-wp/Itemid,33/p,250/
you will notice that this can be used almost 1:1 for Drupal.
The joomla! writers did a fantastic job explaining the concept of themes to
n00bs. Explaining the idea to those who come from a design-shop, or whom know
frontpage, or Dreamweaver to design/create websites.

It is CC, but no-derivs, maybe some concepts can still be used?
