Hi Michael
As you probably guessed, in such a large and wonderfully diverse community
we don't all agree.
There are obviously very many who don't agree with Lucas's claim that
Attribution ShareAlike is "not anti-copyright" since under current
conditions Share-Alike and similar licences (such as GNU GPL) subvert
copyright by keeping work open for re-use, thus ensuring it remains in the
commons, rather than being appropriated by someone else.
