Subject: [Wikitech-l] Upload filesize limit bumped
To: Wikimedia developers <wikitech-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org>

Hash: SHA1
Now that we've got uploads running on our new, beefier file servers,
I've experimentally bumped the upload limit from 20 to 100 megabytes.
Files nearing the high end of that range might not actually succeed,
though, as it'll be hitting post-size limits etc.
As time goes on we'll be improving ways to upload large video files in
particular...

Subject: [FSF] FSF Releases New Version of GNU Free Documentation License
To: info-fsf(a)gnu.org, info-press(a)gnu.org
## FSF Releases New Version of GNU Free Documentation License
BOSTON, Massachusetts, USA -- Monday, November 3, 2008 -- The Free
Software Foundation (FSF) today announced the release of version 1.3
of the GNU Free Documentation License (FDL). This version of the
license allows public wikis to relicense their FDL-covered materials
under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike (CC-BY-SA) 3.0
license.
This new permission has been added at the request of the Wikimedia
Foundation, which oversees the Wikipedia project. The same terms are
available to any public wiki that uses materials available under the
new license. The Wikimedia Foundation will now initiate a process of
community discussion and voting to determine whether or not to use
CC-BY-SA 3.0 as the license for Wikipedia.
"Wikis often import material from a wide variety of sources, many of
which use the CC-BY-SA license," said Brett Smith, licensing
compliance engineer at the FSF. "Wikipedia, however, uses the GNU
FDL. The incompatibility between these two licenses has been an
obstacle to moving material back and forth between these sites. The
new provision of FDL version 1.3 will give Wikipedia and other wikis
another chance to choose the licensing policies they prefer."
"We are grateful to the leadership of the Free Software Foundation for
taking this important step," explained Sue Gardner, executive director
of the Wikimedia Foundation. "In doing this, the FSF is giving the
Wikimedia community an opportunity to make a licensing decision that
honors our mutual commitment to free culture, and best supports the
mission and goals of Wikipedia and its sister projects."
Version 1.3 of the GNU FDL also adopts the license proxy and
termination clauses that are part of the GNU General Public License
version 3, released last year. The full text of the new license,
along with more information, is available at
<http://www.gnu.org/licenses/fdl-1.3.html>. The text of CC-BY-SA 3.0
is available at <http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/>.
The FSF is still accepting comments as it considers a major revision
of the license, FDL version 2.0. More information is available at
<http://gplv3.fsf.org/>.
## About the FSF
The Free Software Foundation, founded in 1985, is dedicated to promoting
computer users' right to use, study, copy, modify, and redistribute computer
programs. The FSF promotes the development and use of free (as in freedom)
software -- particularly the GNU operating system and its GNU/Linux variants --
and free documentation for free software. The FSF also helps to spread
awareness of the ethical and political issues of freedom in the use of
software, and its Web sites, located at fsf.org and gnu.org, are an important
source of information about GNU/Linux. Donations to support the FSF's work can
be made at <http://donate.fsf.org>. Its headquarters are in Boston, MA, USA.
