I was able to find a nice clear statement about copying and using
Google Test. However, I was not able to find a similar statement
about the documentation. And all the pages have a "(c) 2011 Google"
at the bottom. We've got some computers that aren't connected to the
internet, and we'd like to make the documentation available there.
Would it be OK to make a copy? Or better yet, could a statement be
put on the Documentation page? In particular, would like to copy the
Primer, Samples, AdvancedGuide, and FAQ.
Thanks in advance,
Jeff

I've checked with the powers that be, and the verdict is that thehe documentation in the wiki is governed by the same license as the code in the project. In the case of Google Test that is New BSD License (http://www.opensource.org/licenses/bsd-license.php). That license is pretty liberal and should present no obstacles to your use case (IANAL, of course).
