I assume this ask to have GFDL & CC-BY-SA content coexist at the wiki. The existing content can only be relicensed by its authors. The GFDL 1.3 gateway expired on August 1, 2009.
I really need an answer on this as soon as possible. For new Wiki articles would it be OK to add a footer in the article stating that it is licensed under a CC license and not the GFDL? Any official word on this please from the Arch wiki admins or developers. If you're not willing to officially allow CC licenses could the 'override' paragraph I'm suggesting for new content only be all right?
I honestly don't know who is going to reply to you. If you were to just change the license I also don't think you'd have anyone come after you anytime soon. Who is in charge of the wiki these days I'm not sure, but I'd try to get someone's attention besides mine- maybe Pierre or Aaron would be the right guys. -Dan
