Well, the other half of the conversation was with me and another guy
about some differences between CC-SA and something like GNU-GPL,
why choose one over another, weaknesses of CC-SA versus weakness
of GNU-GPL, and so on. I thought it was one of those questions that
is answered in a FAQ somewhere and someone would post a URL and that
would be the end of the discussion.

Didn't mean to clutter the list.

I'm not trying to "get away with" anything.
And the only thing I'm "up to" is trying to remember
how the license works.
