"If you want to import text that you have found elsewhere or that you have co-authored with others, you can only do so if it is available under terms that are compatible with the CC-BY-SA license. ***You do not need to ensure or guarantee that the imported text is available under the GNU Free Documentation License, unless you are its sole author.***" ***emphasis mine That's the second paragraph of your own link... given that the content is already CC-BY-SA, it should just be importable straight into wikipedia (doesn't need to be GFDL), unless I'm missing something? Or to put it more clearly: * it is my understanding that all content in the fedora wiki is CC-BY-SA * it is my understanding that wikipedia can accept all CC-BY-SA content. (GFDL is no longer required.) therefore: * it is my understanding that all content in the fedora wiki can be exported over to wikipedia. Quite possibly I'm wrong on all of these; it is late and I am tired :) Luis _______________________________________________ Fedora-legal-list mailing list Fedora-legal-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-legal-list
