Maybe we (the royal we, the WMF) need to put some
pressure on the FSF
to create a new GFDL version that is not so inhibitive as what we are
currently using. Our copyright notice already states that content is
released under "all future versions of the GFDL", so the transition
would be transparent. Since WMF is one of the biggest users of the
GFDL, i think we could exert that kind of pressure.
i think that pressure is already being felt with the Free Software
Foundations draft the new FDL and SFDL

As for the dual issues...I'm just after some clarification...does
Wikibooks actually stop someone from putting 'This book is licensed
under the FDL and <insert license here>'? when putting a book on
Wikibooks?
