The GFDL has problems which need to be fixed. If the "relicensing" under CC-BY-SA occurs, that's much less likely to happen.
I spent 3 years trying to get the GFDL fixed. Would you like me to forward you all of the "We'll get back to you later" emails? The sooner we are no longer at the mercy of Richard Stallman, the better. Nothing you can say about the new licensing terms will change my mind about that.
I'd much rather see a switch to the GSFDL, with some sort of clause added to that license allowing combining of history lines into a single line listing all significant authors, in the case of an MMORPG (or whatever it is the FSF has chosen for the codeword for Wikipedia).
See above.
