[cc-education] A Voice in The Void

The comments about noncommercial use were really interesting to me. 
During the last period of activity on the list there seemed to be a 
consensus that we should attempt to rebrand the 
atrtibution-noncommercial-sharealike as the CC Education License.

A few days ago there was a proposal for an Education License and an Open 
Education License. I think multiple options from day one will likely 
confuse an issue we've already agreed needs to be simplified for the 
target audience. We're trying to provide a bundle in the Education 
License so that people won't have to deal with options (at least initially).

I'd like to know from people on the list if they're more in favor of 
including or ditching the noncommercial clause?

What do you say everyone? Would you take a few moments to speak to 
educators you know and ask if "educational use" to them implies this 
noncommercial restriction or if it seems an awkward? Though informal, I 
think taking a user pulse would be an excellent way to move forward.
