I want to add this documentation to devdocs.io, but the documentation's license must permit alteration, redistribution and commercial use.

@LBerger This post does not answer about the license of documentations.

"The copyright of an image is always to the person who actually made the image, even if it is inside a library that has a BSD license."

Basically documentation is doxygen code in header files, which are underground a BSD license, and thus free for any use as long as you reference it correctly. In other worden, go ahead. In my opinion, who is going to keep that up to date with new releases? I do not see the use in what you are doing.
