My suggestion for the student problem is to have the university
make cheap copies for the students.  Since the code is public, I
would assume the manual would not have a copyright either.  This
makes it easier for local copies to be made.  (I think you can
make copies for classwork anyway.)  So why not sell the manuals
for a reasonable price for most people, and then those places
with a heart can make cheap copies available to their students.
The only suggestion I have is to make a loose leaf version
available for those places who are going to make copies so save
copying hassles but that is fairly minor.
