Interoperability between Creative Commons licenses and GFDL
Interoperability between CC-by-sa and GFDL has been requested by the Wikimedia Foundation board, which in late November 2007 passed a resolution:
- The Foundation requests that the GNU Free Documentation License be modified in the fashion proposed by the FSF to allow migration by mass collaborative projects to the Creative Commons CC-BY-SA license.[1]
When is this actually happening?
CC-by
It has been claimed that CC-by is one-way-compatible with GFDL,[2] meaning that CC-by content can be used in GFDL work, by not vice-versa.
Non-commercial licenses
No NC license can ever be compatible with GFDL.
