This is one place where open source material has an advantage. When open
source material is done as volunteer work, credit is usually the only
payment, so it tends to be given routinely. As a result, when you do
open source stuff for a company, you can often get credit, too.
For example, a manual I wrote severl years for Progeny Linux Systems is
now available as an open source manual at:
