Feel free to have a different opinion on that.  My time is too precious
to rewrite existing texts just for the sake to help keeping the FDL
alive.  As a contractor this would be different, though.

I already explained that this is about wider dissemination of existing
documentation.  It is not only about including other text into the GPH
but to use text from the GPH elsewhere (e.g. in Wikipedia, magazines).

Helping people to protect their private data is more important than
holding up the use of the FDL.  It is a shame that we need to spend time
on minor legal issues.
