I agree. At least until I figure out whether (and how) GNU Emacs would
ship a wiki-modified version, I'd be willing to maintain an
ok-for-GNU-Emacs version.

Presumably if we had a dedicated wiki for this, we could require that
contributions be tri-licensed (just as Wikipedia requires that
contributions be GFDL'd). But the FSF would still want copyright
assignments in either case if it were going to ship a wiki version, so
I think using Wikimedia is just fine now.
