Hoi, The way I read Michael, it is an open issue never mind what license we choose. It is therefore an issue whether we stay with the GFDL or not. It is in my opinion weird to allow arguments that have no bearing whatsoever on the subject make a difference.
I think we all accept that we currently interpret the GFDL very loosely (probably to the point of not strictly following it), since it doesn't really make sense for what we're doing with it. If we're going to switch to a new license we ought to do it with the intention of following it properly. That means we need to know what following it properly entails before we can know if we want to switch.
