We had a small chat at Wiktionary fr: since a few days about moving /new/ edits made on Wiktionary fr (and others some other are interested) to dual licensing GFDL - CC-by. After a small discussion with Anthere about whether we could be allowed to do it and how, she advised me to come and talk with you all.
GFDL has long been considered a really awful licence for a wiki (it's suited to large slow-changing software manuals with only a few authors) and many people have spoken about switching to CC-by-sa ... but it would be such a huge task to do so that no-one's managed it on a Wikimedia project yet.
So if you can do it on one small project, that would be useful for seeing what the rest of us would need to do to achieve the same ...
I'm not sure about CC-by for the reasons you state. Why did WiktionaryZ choose CC-by rather than CC-by-sa?`
