Well, and the latter point is more of a long-term goal. No bludgeoning
should take place until we've sorted out a well-organized list of other
things which would be nice to fix a well.
(Also, I don't know what license the doll-collectors picked, but I bet they
picked a non-commercial one, which would be incompatible no matter what. I
suspect most people gravitate or will gravitate towards nc licenses when
they make-their-own-wiki for semi-obvious reasons.)

So that's two forks now. Yay!
The thing is, this is one I just happened to know about. How many
others have happened that we don't know about? Just how bad is our
image out there after the webcomics debacle?
(And I understand a Wired News reporter is sniffing around the
webcomics debacle. Fantastic. Perhaps if it becomes a *public*
embarrassment something might actually get done about the AFD
problem.)
So we've got two options:
1. Fix AFD.
2. Bludgeon Stallman into making the GFDL compatible with CC.
I really don't know which is the more futile undertaking, at this point
;-)
