There's something I've never understood about
our use of the GFDL. I
assume it is not the case that we are stuck with whatever version of
the GFDL was around in September 2001? There must be some kind of
provision in the text of the GFDL to automatically update the license
to the latest version, am I right? If this isn't the case then we're
as far from GFDL 1.3 as we are from CC-by-sa.
Yes. The license is "GFDL 1.2 or any later version", IIRC.
However, Stallmann (and thus the FSF) did /not/ endorse the CC licenses
because there's a noncommercial one, and if he won't endorse one of the
licenses, he won't recommend the others in the CC bundle either.
So much for his reasonig, if it can be called that ;-)
