The drafts we've seen of the FDL 1.3, which we have to treat as confidential at this time, require this unusual step.
"require" seems unlikely. What difference is there between a project created today and one created a year ago from a legal standpoint? Do you mean to say it's more convenient to wait?
At the very least, it'd be easier to wait and start a new project as all-FDL1.3 licensed project, rather than starting, getting a fair bit of material, and then needing to go back and relicense it all.
