If the second,then you are mistaken. _I_ cannot take the existing page and relicenseit, since I don't own the copyright to it (as you contributed some material). But if both of us (and any other contributors) decide to dual-license thatmaterial under the CC-NC/SA and GNU FDL... or even a traditional commercial copyright license... then we are completely able to do that.I mean "legally speaking, ...". Why would you like to relicense this page? Do you want to include it in the documentation??? If not, I see no good reason to relicense it under the FDL.
I don't get it. Isn't it easier that we sort out any problems when they actually appear? It seems a waste of brainpower to do anything now. When the time is there, we can always ask permission of {us,wiki contributors} to grant various permissions.
Do the webmasters wish I submit them a patch for adding links to the wiki? Of course, I won't do it until the wiki is ready.
yes please. -- Han-Wen Nienhuys - address@hidden - http://www.xs4all.nl/~hanwen
