From Wikitravel

Hi, I'm a new WikiTravel guest (November, 2004) who stumbled onto the site from the English Wikipedia. Like many others who get into using wikis (it seems), I am a software engineer. I am also married, male, and living in. I am interested in many things Wiki, so when I found this site, I signed up the first day. I'm a bit of an idealist who believes in the ideals behind open source, open knowledge, and the sharing of our collective experiences. I'm not very subtle sometimes, so hopefully I don't step on many/any toes!

I don't know how useful I will be here, as I tend to be a very spontaneous person who may one day start a flood of editing. For now I am actively trying to multi-license as many English Wikipedia U.S. city and county articles as possible so that others using this site might be able to use those articles. Ideally, I would like those people who borrow from Wikipedia to also consent to dual-license using the GFDL as well in order that the two projects might feed off of each other.

I accept to multi-license my contributions under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike license version 1.0 or any later version and the or any later version. I elect to release all minor edits into the public domain. If this appeals to you, add a similar notice to your user page (and if you work on the English Wikipedia, do so there too). You can work to change the licensing of WikiTravel to include versions of the license later than 1.0, which is hardly an easy or smooth task. (See Wikitravel talk:Copyleft)
