Sure.  I run the site.  :)  The wiki is a community site where any
visitor can change the text of the pages.  The pages are under the GNU
FDL.

We talked about deficiencies of the GNU FDL for wikis and Emacs Wiki
in particular back in September/October 2002.  My first mail in that
thread is dated 2002-09-26 and has the Subject: EmacsWiki and the Free
Documentation Licence.

We also talked about copyright assignments for wiki contributions.
Your first mail in that thread is dated 2002-10-18 and has the
Subject:  Copyright assignments for contribution to a wiki page.
