Having talked with some people about this and reading why the
InfoAnarchy Wiki is public domain:

  http://www.infoanarchy.org/wiki/wiki.pl?Public_Domain
  
I'm convinced that we should make the text on the Oekonux Wiki public
domain and that we should use / reference the Creative Commons public
domain dedication:

  http://creativecommons.org/licenses/publicdomain/

Questions about how this works in German law and so forth can be
followed up there -- there is not yet a German list but if there are
people wanting one I'm sure it would be set up:

  http://creativecommons.org/discuss#icommons

This is also being discussed on the Wiki here:

  http://en.wiki.oekonux.org.uk/OekonuxEnglishWiki:Copyrights

If others are in agreement I suggest that we seek the agreement of all
the people with user accounts on the sites:

  http://en.wiki.oekonux.org.uk/Special:Listusers
  http://de.wiki.oekonux.org.uk/Spezial:Listusers

And if there is anyone we can't contact or don't get agreement from then
we can always just delete their contributions...

I guess that follow ups to this might make most sense being done on the
Wiki...

Also I haven't sent this to the German list or put stuff about it on the
German Wiki because I can't read or write German... if somone who can
could translate if needs be / forward this that would be great.

Chris
