You mentioned in a recent response to this thread that one could find
guidelines at http://creativecommons.org/weblog/entry/5752. I went here
and clicked through every link on the page but found nothing. The one
link saying that the guidelines have been posted 'here' goes to
http://lists.ibiblio.org/pipermail/cc-licenses/2006-January/003125.html
which, from what I saw, is simply a text version of the original
referencing page.

Please can you help me (and perhaps others like me) find these
guidelines.

really? where is the second? i'm only aware of this one: http:// 
creativecommons.org/weblog/entry/5752 (which is the same as that  
which appears on the wiki: http://wiki.creativecommons.org/ 
NonCommercial_Guidelines)
