   FWIW, it's clearly different: the GPL can be used for manuals, but
   is not an FDL-compatible licence, because it does not allow
   addition of unremovable adverts and the other FDL problems.

These are not problems, again you spread more FUD.

   So, requiring FDL-compatibility means requiring something less
   sharing-protective for the manuals than the GPL.  :-/

The GFDL is as sharing protective as the GPL, but it it is meant for
documents.

Yet again you start spreading FUD about the GFDL, please stop.  If you
have a opinion, state it as that, but to this point it has always been
FUD.
