Well, and the latter point is more of a long-term goal. No bludgeoning should take place until we've sorted out a well-organized list of other things which would be nice to fix a well.
(Also, I don't know what license the doll-collectors picked, but I bet they picked a non-commercial one, which would be incompatible no matter what. I suspect most people gravitate or will gravitate towards nc licenses when they make-their-own-wiki for semi-obvious reasons.)

Looks like the doll-collector's wiki is saying "bugger Wikipedia" and picking a CC license specifically to maintain incompatibility - they've been put off the idea of Wikipedia *that badly*.
So that's two forks now. Yay!
The thing is, this is one I just happened to know about. How many others have happened that we don't know about? Just how bad is our image out there after the webcomics debacle?
(And I understand a Wired News reporter is sniffing around the webcomics debacle. Fantastic. Perhaps if it becomes a *public* embarrassment something might actually get done about the AFD problem.)
So we've got two options:
- Fix AFD.
- Bludgeon Stallman into making the GFDL compatible with CC.
I really don't know which is the more futile undertaking, at this point ;-)
