Hash: SHA1

Creative Commons (http://www.creativecommons.org/) has begun a public
comment period for the draft of the next version of their open content
(-ish) licenses. Creative Commons has 11+ licenses with a variety of
mixins -- requiring attribution, preventing derivative works, allowing
derivative works under a copyleft-like "ShareAlike" provision, and
preventing commercial use of works.

The draft 2.0 version of the Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike
license -- which contains all the stipulations in the other licenses
mixed in -- is available here:

      http://creativecommons.org/drafts/license2.0

Comment is welcome on the cc-licenses mailing list:

What does this have to do with Debian? Well, I figured that an
opportunity to give input on new versions of content licenses would be
useful for Debianistas, especially considering recent dustups around
the GFDL.

P.S. I sent a copy of this email from my @d.o account, but that's
super-busted, so I figured I'd try again from one that works.
