Thanks, that's a good reference, and the changes from the version I was looking at were... rather extensive. However, I don't see anything in that reference which lets a copyright license dictate terms of use. As near as I can tell, the GFDL can refuse to grant copyright permissions -- if someone uses technical measures to prevent others from reading or copying some GFDL document, then that person might lose the right to make further copies. However, the GFDL can't revoke ownership of a copy which was obtained legally. -- Raul
