Right, Now it may be a good thing to move the wiki and the web site
under CC. I'm not sure  about all details but I think those publication
don't need to be released under GPL, they are not software and belong
to another area that we could protect more efficiently.

Concerning publishing on the web it seems much more easy to claim
copyright infringement than license infringement.

Anyway FB were very fast , they answered me by mail a few hours later
and they simply removed the picture.
