Thanks! By digging into that, I confirmed that Federico is the sole author of the file manager interface spec that kicked off this discussion. A couple of people, myself included, have adjusted formatting since the transition to ikiwiki, but that's not a creative work. I've emailed Federico to ask about licensing, and I'll let you know when he responds.

I've also built a list of which users edited which page on the MoinMoin wiki, to make it easier to do this for other pages:
https://gitlab.com/takluyver/xdg-moinmoin-archaeology/blob/master/page_editors.json

This data would have been public when that version of the wiki was live, and the equivalent data is public for the current wiki, so I don't think there can be any privacy concerns. I haven't re-published the raw wiki data I generated it from, in case that has some sensitive info, but anyone with access to annarchy.freedesktop.org can get the raw data if they want to check. The repo contains two notebooks with the code I used to put that list together.
