We have a page setup for FDL suggestions at: http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/GFDL_suggestions
It does not currently have any related to the excerpting rules, though it very much needs some and I would have already written some but I didn't want to monopolize the page. *Please* take some time to put out your ideas there.
Sure. But what is going to happen to that page? Will someone definitely make it some kind of official submission? Because if we're talking amongst ourselves about the flaws but those discussions never reach the FSF then that's kind of a problem. :)
Incidentally I wonder if it is not worth having a separate licenses-l or copyright-l list for Wikimedia. A lot of this discussion is highly technical and not necessarily of interest to other subscribers who are interested in Commons. The scope of such discussions is also wider than the Commons community.
