Isn't uploading GFDL stuff to non-free a bit of like throwing salt in
the wound (for the FSF, which vehemently hates non-free because of the
various proprietary packages there)? [Ok, maybe some would consider
that an _advantage_, but one can hope for a little diplomacy...]
Maybe there should be separate "kinda-non-free-but-opinions-differ" and
"really-really-non-free-nope-not-even-a-little" sections.
