i think that pressure is already being felt with the Free Software
Foundations draft the new FDL and SFDL
http://gplv3.fsf.org/doclic-dd1-guide.html
http://gplv3.fsf.org/sfdl-draft-2006-09-26.html

As for the dual issues...I'm just after some clarification...does
Wikibooks actually stop someone from putting 'This book is licensed
under the FDL and <insert license here>'? when putting a book on
Wikibooks?
