I personally think that by-sa would be more fair to contributors to the handbook.

I agree that there is no clear copyright policy for the contributions to the wiki. As concerns my contributions, I would welcome them being integrated into the handbook. But I'm afraid you would need that every contributor agrees similarly, You can easily list all the contributors to a page through the wiki history mechanism.

Cheers,
Laurent.

Hello Laurent,

In the end, It's the same to me.  If nobody else raises a voice, we're 
going to use by-sa.

The problem is that I can only get the handles from the Wiki ("Mathieu" 
is easy, but who is "Im06r"?  or "558742")?  I assume that the Wiki 
admin could create a mapping between handles and email.  Are you the 
admin?  Can you create such a list?

Best,

Unfortunately, no, I'm not an admin.  Maybe Mathieu is.  Otherwise, please ask Michael Butler, he will know who is admin.

CHeers,
Laurent.

Hello Michael,

I agree with Laurent, BY-SA should be OK.

cheers
