Yeah, I had also recently thought the Wikimedia Foundation is not working toward information freedom as such; freedom to edit is exercised, but not to redistribute, modify, and merge back. Interestingly, I think resolving this could also improve editing experience and editor retention. I had written a small spec about making merging stuff between different wikis possible. This is what git does, and is a key driver of software freedom.
