Cave Canem back online

This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

I'm about the only active contributor right now other than Mo, though I 
saw a new registration recently. What about the Gnu Free Document 
License? That's what Wikipedia uses, so that would seem to handle your 
objection.
