Wikipedia are working with the FSF to make the FDL "compatible" with CC-BY-SA 3. I expect that this will happen by the FSF adding a clause to the FDL saying "If you have no front-cover texts, no back-cover texts etc. etc, you may relicense this work under CC-BY-SA 3". This is something we need to consider if we move away from CC-BY-SA. I can see the arguments for it, but unless we are careful, it does move us further away from the growing area of license compatibility.
