   Actually we don't. All that is said is that non-trivial code chunks
   _should_ be made available under the GPL, too. (Just like the FDL
   recommends.)

I changed it some time ago to say

  According to the [GNU Free Documentation License], the code on
  this page should be licensed under the [GNU General Public
  License] - the same terms as apply to ratpoison. Accordingly, it
  is.

I'm kind of going on the (tacit) assumption that all the code that
the code that goes through this is GNU GPL, and that the same
assumption should apply to the wiki.

I know tacit assumptions like this are the sorts of things that can
get people in trouble, so that's why I wanted to say something
explicit on the wiki.  It might not have been quite explicit enough
however.
