I've got contacts within HP's legal group. If
we can define the scope of
what
we'd like released; i.e., calculator and computer
manuals before 1980, or
whatever, I'll be glad to try to get their release under HP copyright (I
wouldn't bother to try for public domain).

HP hasn't given "people" permission to do that. They gave Dave Hicks
permission to do it.
I believe that they gave blanket permission for anyone to do that.
