Correct. But again - this situation is caused by the way, the wiki
started. As it started without licensing resctrictions, only the
Copyright is relevant.
The wiki copyright page states
"Copyright 1999-2007 by the contributing authors and Sun Microsystems,
Inc."
Does that imply that Sun as joint copyright holder could impose
a license on the content, for example, PDL on unlicensed docs content?
I don't know, if this is enough to establish a joint copyright (in the
same way as JCA does) but I don't think so.
If this would be the case I would say, we could not add content from
third parties to the wiki. E.g. a Creative Commons licensed material
could not be added without asking the authors, because the license does
not allow to grant copyright privileges to a third party. (This was the
same with PDL or any other regular license).
Oh my. Attorneys are nature's revenge for civilization (no
disrespect) ;-)
