I think it's pretty clear it's a different thing.It is clear that it is not 
public domain, I think any possible confusion will come over the plus one 
bit.

I think it may be clear to us that the +1 refers to attribution / copyright 
notice type licenses, but is that the only possibility? Is it possible to 
have a +1 that had a different nature?
