Thanks Nick.

Adding it to the credits is a good idea.  Next question on that  
though -- if I ended up using some CC-BY  in addition to CC-BY/ 
ShareAlike, would I just add two sections to the credits, one for  
each group of pieces or just include both notifications at the end of  
the credits, OR?  Thanks,
