I guess it is still my question. We agreed to the PDL for the old
content, then we said no the CC for revised and new content. So
technically the new revised content is only under the CC lic. None of
the new content falls under the PDL since we made the change for V2 if I
am understanding this correctly. If this is true then we would need
approval for the content to be used under the PDL.
IANAL also, but I think we are already covered. Here's why:
The registration form (http://oooauthors.org/join_form) for the
OOoAuthors website includes a checkbox labelled thus:
[ ] I agree that all documents I add here are available under the
PDL license.
and you cannot join unless you check that box.
Anyone who joined long ago and has since disappeared would have
agreed to that statement. New members would also have agreed to
that statement, even though the explanatory statement at the top
of the page says "you are also agreeing that the content you add
to this site falls under the PDL license, unless otherwise
indicated on a folder". Because the explanatory wording can be
interpreted to slightly contradict the official form, that
wording can (and should) be changed.
