Certainly. If Zack were to ask for his own work (whose copyright is assigned to the FSF) to be released under the GPL (in addition obviously to being included in a GFDL-licensed work) and the FSF were to refuse that request, then I think a lot of people would agree that it would look very very bad. If GPL-versions of most of the content can be obtained, then there is the possibility of a GPL fork. There probably isn't a volunteer immediately ready to do the work of putting together a GPL release, and one still hopes it won't be necessary, but, just in case, it would be good to obtain the raw material now, rather than later, when it might be harder to do because of source tarballs not being on-line any more, e-mail addresses not working any more, etc. Edmund
