Re: Re: migrating Wikipedia to Creative Commons

I did some looking and found this:

http://meta.wikipedia.org/wiki/GFDL_FAQ

Basically, it says that the Wikipedia began before the CC was around, 
and since it's the individual contributors who hold copyright, the 
Wikimedia Foundation can't unilateraly release content underneath the 
CC. Except for the first bit, I've already noted this in the petition, 
and I think the proposed solution will work around the second bit.

I also found this:

http://meta.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guide_to_the_CC_dual-license

This is a way for individuals to dual license their Wikipedia 
contributions. If you're a registered Wikipedian please do this! I'm 
basically proposing doing this on a mass scale.
