What jurisdictions are you licensed to practice law in? Dual licensing at least has the one added benefit that if the switch to CC-BY-SA is deemed invalid in one or more jurisdictions, at least the content might still be distributable under the GFDL.
heh, I find it amusing that you are questioning somebody else's legal credentials, after signally failing to understand even the most rudimentary legal concepts earlier in other threads...
And your claim for the benefit of GFDL is just simply rubbish.
There is *zero* chance that the switch to CC-BY-SA can be deemed invalid in any jurisdiction worth mentioning, and thus your whole argument is just so much chaff.
