The current terms are brief, yes, but only because the string "GFDL" in that sentence links to a footnote. That footnote (located at the end of [[MediaWiki:Edittools]]) currently says "GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 or any later version published by the Free Software Foundation; with no Invariant Sections, with no Front-Cover Texts, and with no Back-Cover Texts.", with a link to the full license text. Given that, it'd be trivial to change that sentence to "You irrevocably agree to release your contributions under [link]our license[/link]" and update the footnote accordingly. -- Jim Redmond j...@scrubnugget.com _______________________________________________ foundation-l mailing list foundation-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l
