* Which form should the book have?

My favourite way of publishing would be to put the book on the internet,
(a) in a ready-to-print form (like a ps.gz or pdf file), and (b) its
source form. This would be similar to the way Debian puts up CD images.

Debian also maintains a link list of CD vendors. This way it is quite easy
to find the cheapest one.

A HOWTO on how to print the book would be great, too, for those who want
to print it themselves, as it does not seem to be as trivial as burning a
CD.

When you give it to a regular publisher, watch out that the contract
mentions that only NON-EXCLUSIVE rights are granted to the publisher.
IANAL but AFAIK the German publishing law (and maybe others too) sets
exclusive rights granted as the default, if there is no other agreement.
The best thing seems to be, to let the publisher publish the book only
based on the rights of the GFDL (or whatever license the texts are
licensed under to the public).

Same as above. Watch out for exclusive rights!

The answer to this general question influences the question on the
character of the book. If texts from outside the Oekonux project are
included we need to decide whether it is still an Oekonux book or
something different.

The book should consist entirely of free texts -- or at least freely
copyable texts.
