What about the same license as wikipedia? Wikipedia changes its license to http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Licensing_update CC-BY-SA 3.0 and what is left of gfdl "Specifically, the Wikimedia Foundation proposal is to amend site-wide licensing terms and terms of use for all projects as follows: 1. to make all content currently distributed under the GNU Free Documentation License (with “later version” clause) additionally available under CC-BY-SA 3.0, as explicitly allowed through the latest version of the GFDL; 2. to require continued dual-licensing of new community edits in this manner, but allow CC-BY-SA-only content from third parties (However, GFDL-only content from third parties is no longer allowed); 3. to inform re-users that content which includes imported CC-BY-SA-only information cannot be used under the GFDL.
