That's correct. Changes originating in the wiki to be relicensed can
still be relicensed past November 1, in fact until the 2009 deadline
for relicensing. I haven't checked the FAQ (we didn't receive an
advance copy of it), but it is possible that it doesn't correctly
reflect this point.
More later,
Erik
