copyright concerns What is Service Provisioning?[edit]

Does this page have copyright concerns? Two notes saying "This was copied from" $URL, but nothing I saw at the linked URL's suggested the work was published under any terms allowing us to publish it here under the GFDL. But maybe I just overlooked something? --Sprhodes 20:55, 27 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

On a second look, it seems that at least one of those blocks is not directly copied, but is paraphrased in a way that may be OK. IANAL of course, so I'm not sure how paraphrased it has to be... anyway, if that's the case perhaps the linked URL should be moved to a reference? --Sprhodes 21:01, 27 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I have removed the section "What is Service Provisioning?" as it appears to be heavily derived from openspml.org as you have pointed out. The second half was a formal definition, so I have restored that, but it may be better to work that into Provisioning.
