Andy,

I would probably be remiss if I didn't mention that the Wiki is
specifically licensed GPLv2. The archives will have more details
concerning as to who* and why&.  I believe its effectively impossible for
the wiki license to change to v2 or later, though I would be happy if such
a possibility existed.

Regards,
James

* I'm the perp.

& At the time that I set up the wiki I did not consider the GFDL as a free
  license (still don't, actually). I was concerned that later versions of 
  the GPL could potentially have similiar issues (I no longer hold this
  view).
