A printed edition (or even a CD edition) has been
frequently
mentioned on people's wish lists. Until people realistically start
talking about how to fund such an undertaking, I have a hard time
considering the idea as anything more than a pipe-dream.
But the idea of a freely distributable and modifiable encyclopedia is
surely not a pipe-dream. With a hodge-podge of fair-use,
exclusively-licenced-to-Wikipedia, only-for-nonommercial-use and
only-for-educational-use materials, each with slightly different
interpretatins in different countries, that idea is dead.
