But what about the proposed question: the reason why you are not allowed to mix
CC-BY-SA with other content is because you need to make sure the work in
question can be reused by others, right?
I don´t see why it would harm the license if the pictures were displayed in the
same gallery. It doesn´t change the license "plate" of the works that are
licensed CC-BY-SA.
Or am I wrong?
