I'm not quite sure where to put it, but something like

Old documentation using FDL should not be converted to CCBYSA4 unless  
permission is granted by all contributors.  For further information see  
.....

alternate version

Old documentation using FDL should only be converted to CCBYSA4 if  
permission is granted by all contributors.  For further informaion see  
....

I don't know if I am just unusual in how I read it (quite possible) -  
but perhaps because other items (such as docbook DTD) get updated for a  
new release, it just didn't occur to me that there were other  
considerations to altering the license.  Note the above does say "(or  
relicensed)" without saying why to to or not do that.  For the "see  
..." perhaps https://techbase.kde.org/Projects/KDE_Relicensing is good,  
but I'm still missing information on how a contributor would actually  
go about granting permission.

If I were to email someone, and get a reply agreeing, could I just add  
his name to the relicensecheck.pl script, or would I need to upload the  
email somewhere?
