The GFDL will be used in the future for all GNU manuals, and for some
commercial free manuals.  Using the GFDL for LDP manuals will make it
possible to move text between these manuals, much as using the GPL for
software makes it possible to move code between programs.

So I suggest that people choose the GFDL rather than the GPL for
their manuals.
