once you start thinking on "possible
liabilities" you're walking the fair
use lane on commons.
Commons is by definition a free content file repo. That's akin to saying
"let's host some nonfree articles copied from wikipedia if we can determine
we won't get in trouble"
He's talking about WMF chapter images, not any random crap! Claiming
this is a "slippery slope" danger is, frankly, utterly ridiculous and
not to be taken seriously.
Zee problem kicks in with defineing chapeter images. Meetup pic for
example. In practice is is probably something better dealt with
through the foundation chapter agreement but it involves elements that
commons doesn't really have control over.
