I cross posted this to cc-community now that I found that mailing list. ;)

Hey,
Sorry if this isn't the best place but I couldn't find anywhere else.
I'm the copyright holder of a piece of gaming server software which an investor has expressed interest in using on a site of theirs. As a precondition, they wish to be the sole competitor in the market for a period of time until the software is placed under the GPL.
Now I think it'd be nice to have the source-code available, and their
 only wish is the NC clause (they're cool with the source-code being open). At first glance cc-by-nc looks
 ideal.
- cc-by-nc for 1 year. Grant them usage of the software.- After 1 year, full release under the GNU GPL.
But CC expressively advises *against* licensing software under it. However it's the most ideal license I've found so far. Any suggestions?
Thanks.
