In Reply to you Post on my User Page: This is really funny - the editing page says:

"Please note that all contributions to Hydrogenaudio Knowledgebase are considered to be released under the GNU Free Documentation License 1.2 (see Project:Copyrights for details). If you don't want your writing to be edited mercilessly and redistributed at will, then don't submit it here."

This does not make any sense at all. The GNU FDL does not permit your writing to be "edited mercilessly and redistributed at will" - you are stating on your edit page that you are willing and going to ignore the copyright of the submitted texts. If you want to do this, you have to state that all submited texts are considered to be released into public domain - not FDL.

To complete the crazyness this whole stuff is not present on the german version of the interface (I don't have to change any settings to see the german version, It's default - I never saw the english version). So everyone whose mother-tongue is not english will not even know about your license-violating plans.

I don't want to complain (already did that on the concerned page ;) and I'm fine with your apology but I just wanted to note that you may be getting yourself into some legal trouble here. --Chronial 06:37, 24 September 2006 (CDT)
