I see what you mean having visited again this evening.  Very weird.  I 
couldn't find any au license links, yet in my firefox history I found....
http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/2.1/au/

That's not a page I would hit by accident right in the middle of looking at 
the pool.org.au site :)  So there was an AU license in there somewhere. 
Maybe someone fixed it :)  ...wait, I found it by sorting my firefox history 
by date ....
http://www.pool.org.au/help/poolmunity_guidelines/poolmunity_guidelines

I remember now, I was reading their guidelines and clicked the embedded link 
on this page (the link under item 4.)

No matter, I'm just happy I can possibly contribute as an "outsider".  I 
feel a composition named "the pom and the cuckoo" is in order, lol.

I think point 1 is a good idea.

For your point 2, are you asking for the license to be displayed on this 
page?
http://www.pool.org.au/users/jane_ulman

I personally don't think it's necessary, the license is right under the 
download link.  Though I do think a textual version of the license might be 
good, I've seen sites try and explain what the license means/allows, but 
it's probably fair to say it's treading on the toes of the deed.

Thanks for the response.

Kevin
