This is the first I'd heard that there was
actual progress. Excellent!
Are they going to release it for public comment as they did the
planned GPL rewrite?
I am informed by a nice chap on #wikipedia that they've now released
the draft GFDL v2:

The first discussion draft of the GNU Free Documentation License
version 2 was released on 2006 September 26, along with a draft of the
new GNU Simpler Free Documentation License. The new draft of the GNU
FDL includes a number of improvements, such as:
* New terms crafted during the GPLv3 process to improve internationalization
* Clarifications to help people applying the license to audio and video
* Relaxed requirements for using an excerpt from a work

I won't have a chance to read it for a while - anyone want to go through it?
