It is, however, the case that no from the FSF has edited the page. I would not recommend they do so at this point, if for no other reason that to avoid dealing with some of the more 'interesting' types of argument we find in our community. ... um.. like the style of your response here. :)
Don't want them to edit that page. I want to see a statement from the FSF on the comments they have received so far from everyone wikimedia or otherwise showing that they are thinking about them.
I'm a (new) board member at the FSF -- and a WMF advisory board member and editor on the English Wikipedia. I'll ping folks at the FSF about the status of the new GFDL/GSFDL draft and will make sure that Wiki(p|m)edia's concerns are taken into account.
This project is the single largest (and probably, most important) user of the GFDL. I'll do what I can to make sure that your comments are taken into account and given special weight.
Thanks, Mako. It's good to know that at least somebody who might be able to do something about this is listening.
