I suggest the only change be that we discourage the assertion of

continue, I think it's best to keep this can of worms tightly shut, as
99% of the contributors to the wiki, including you and I, have done,
be it consciously or not.
So the consensus is that anything on the wiki should be regarded as
though it were public domain?
Not at all. I'm only suggesting that in our social forum we avoid
display and assertion of copyright control, whether the rights exist or not.
Should there maybe be a note somewhere "Any code you post here will be
regarded as public domain; if you wish to assert copyright, don't post
it here." ?
I don't think that has much practical meaning.
This is not only about code. If you take this thread to its conclusion
(which I hope we avoid), it's about the entire content of the wiki, and
everyone who's added or altered a single word is involved.
