Hi David,
Thanks for consulting with your lawyer on this.
From what I understand, the DMCA has a few parts, and one of them
specifies the protocol to follow for web site takedowns.
I certainly need to review the relevant materials myself, but there is
more information here:
http://www.chillingeffects.org/dmca512/faq.cgi
But, this wiki is certainly not providing any copyright information, and
we should explore the possibility of contesting this takedown notice
legally. It may simply be a matter of filing a counter-notification:
