A few comments and questions:

- liblicense-0.8.1 gives a link error for me, though configure
went through all fine:
../liblicense/.libs/liblicense.so: undefined reference to `dlsym'
../liblicense/.libs/liblicense.so: undefined reference to `dlerror'
../liblicense/.libs/liblicense.so: undefined reference to `dlopen'
../liblicense/.libs/liblicense.so: undefined reference to `dlclose'
A -ldl is missing in utils/Makefile.am

Thanks. I just committed and pushed a probable fix. Does that do it for you?

- Why is the "licenses" folder empty in the liblicense git repo?
This makes autoconf fail from ./autogen.sh

- The "Developers: Using git" [3] section lists the command
git submodule init
git submodule update
I think the page should explain why that is needed.

These two issues are related; doing the "git submodule init ; git submodule update" fills out the licenses directory. (It's like svn:externals.) Once you see what I mean, would you be willing to improve the wiki page to explain this?

- Whom could I team up with when creating an I/O module
for XSPF [2] files?

What does your [2] refer to?

Regardless, I'd be the person to talk to, but hopefully you can do a lot of the work!

- The link "Library Documentation (generated from source)"
http://labs.creativecommons.org/~nathan/liblicense
on the liblicense page is dead

Thanks - we should fix that. I've created a ticket for us to track this: http://code.creativecommons.org/issues/issue167

- How can I get emblems auto-detected emblems like this?:

It seems installing liblicense-0.8.1 is not enough?

Yeah - it relates to a module called liblicense-gnome that we've been doing a poor job of maintaining due to really spread-out developer resources. It lives in svn at http://code.creativecommons.org/svnroot/liblicense-gnome/.

Would be great if you have a minute for me.

Your move. (-:
