I cannot see why we should create problems for people like me if we can make live so much simpler with using a very permissive license instead of public domain. What does public domain give you what the very permissive license doesn't? > [...] > <http://haskell.org/haskellwiki/HaskellWiki:Community_Portal#Mandatory.2F > Optional_license_straw_poll> Where can I get an account for the wiki? I don't want my IP address to appear in some history. Or isn't the wiki configured to store IP addresses like Wikipedia does? By the way, why aren't there any links like "Discussion" and "Edit" on the top of the page?
