"Recent content is available under a simple permissive license"
The Haskell wiki[1] says "Recent content is available under a simple permissive license". But this is unilluminating - recent? how recent, exactly? - and will become increasingly understated as time goes by. Wouldn't it be slightly more helpful to say "Content added after " ... YYYY/MM/DD ... " is available under a simple permissive license"? -- Robin [1] http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki

My understanding is that -all- content on haskellwiki is "under a simple permissive license"; it being "recent" with respect to the old hawiki. But perhaps I am mistaken?

Clicking that link (http://haskell.org/haskellwiki/HaskellWiki:Copyrights) leads to a page that says: "Contributions since 2006-01-14 05:15 UTC are available under the above license." But you are right that 'recent' is not really the right term, are there other suggestions? Of course the best solution would be to fix the license on all things added before 2006-01-14... Twan
