This really shouldn't be on wikitech-l.

Question: If none of the existing licensing systems
quite fulfils
Wikipedia's needs, why doesn't Wikimedia (i.e. us) write a license that
does work?
Well, we can write whatever we want, but it won't help with the
problem, because we have this huge mass of content under GNU FDL.
I think that the best we can do is to come up with strong suggestions
for GNU FDL 2.0, and under the "any later versions" clause, use that.
What I'd like to see if GNU FDL 2.0 and CC ATT-SA 2.0 both explicitly
say that copying and pasting stuff between stuff licensed under either
is perfectly fine.
