Just a guess.
Note also that the clause says "operator" and not "Publisher". Publisher is defined in the early part of the FDL, so I think operator is in the classic IT sense of computer operator (because "user" would be confusing). So even if Wikipedia doesn't relicense as a whole, most of Wikipedia probably will become cc-by-sa soon. -- MJ Ray (slef) Webmaster for hire, statistician and online shop builder for a small worker cooperative http://www.ttllp.co.uk/ http://mjr.towers.org.uk/ (Notice http://mjr.towers.org.uk/email.html) tel:+44-844-4437-237 _______________________________________________ Discussion mailing list Discussion@fsfeurope.org https://mail.fsfeurope.org/mailman/listinfo/discussion
