According to the poll proposition, it seems that only
wikinewsies are
allowed to participate to the poll. Is that so ? I am not sure as it
seems it would not be advertised on wikipedia mailing list if it was the
case. But the poll is mentionning wikinewsies only.
The poll is open to anyone who has a Wikinews user page. When I
advertised it on the Wikipedia mailing list, there was only one option
to vote for (CC-BY-SA) and the vote had already begun. The page has
undergone many changes since then, and the vote won't start until
September 6, so there is still time to discuss who should be allowed
to vote. Since the vote affects whether other Wikimedia projects will
be compatible with Wikinews, I think it's only fair to let people from
those projects express their opinions on the license.
