Those sound useful, along with other contracts recently discussed on
cc-community. Jon Phillips noted a place collecting such things,

Actually cc-community is the right place. cc-devel is for technology
development. I cc'd cc-community and replies should go there.

Yes, that's a great idea.

Yes, CC+ is just a thin architecture for specifying that other terms
are available. An agent for handling the non-public license option
could conceivably do so in any fashion, so it is a matter of creating
such an agent or getting an existing one to implement the HAFHP
proposal.
