Rubbish. The opinion I have seen bandied around is that the
two issues are a problem with the GFDL, and have been acknowledged as
such by the FSF, and are going to be fixed real soon now
™. Pragmatically, it does not make sense to remove documentation that
only has these issues, only to turn around and move them back in.
The GR sounds more like a sore loser GR.
