This is excellent news, especially for those of us who have been
wishing for license migration for some time now. We all obviously need
to take some time to read over the new version of the license, but if
it's everything we had hoped for, we should probably update 'books to
use this new license instead of the old 1.2 version.
Maybe we should post a copy of the new license at [[b:Wikibooks:GFDL
Version 1.3]] and open up a discussion on the wiki

For those who aren't on foundation-l, news has
arrived that the
GFDL 1.3 was released, containing the relicensing clause which
could allow us to move to CC-by-sa-3.0
My general impression has been that we think this is a good
thing, and we would discuss it if/when the option arrived. So,
let's start thinking about this some more. I suggest reading the
new bits of the license, the FAQ and perhaps reviewing some
comments on foundation-l if you need background.
I look forward to some fruitful discussion.
