Hello,
We've just been contacted by a person inquiring, how he can reuse a work
by Samuel Butler (1835-1902), made available in an University of
Adelaide ebook collection under a CC BY NC SA license. (The work is a
remix of Homer's Illiad).

This seems to me a really confusing use of CC licenses - the whole
collection is CC licensed and contains solely works in the public domain.
Is there any reason to do this?
Best,
Alek Tarkowski
