Surely we agree this is instructional material, the presentation is its
supporting material. that's why I sometimes use GFDL for presentations.

As I wrote, when you publish there **only**, problems outweigh the
benefits. Once again, we should not publish ONLY to SaaS sites that have
restrictive, changing terms of use & conditions. "It's popular" is about
the least valid argument for putting content **only** in such sites. My
***personal*** preference is to not publish on such sites at all.
