Rep:
That get s complicated quite fast though. A GFDL document could not be dual licensed under the CC license for instance. I have considered the option of choosing a license on submit, but that has a few drawback. It not only greatly complicates the setup, it also means the entire LQ Wiki is not redistribuatable under a single license.
