Hi,

I want to contribute to a collaborative work but I have some questions
regarding authorship, copyright and allowed uses of my work.

The collaborative work will be covered by the Creative Commons
License, Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike, Generic Jurisdiction
and each original author retains copyright over the submitted work.
The whole work will be published by an entity and any work submitted
may be edited by a team. This will be done to allow the submitted
material better fit into the existing work, change the format to suit
publication and/or to fix any typo's etc.

Would the entity coordinating, directing and publishing the whole work
be considered as the author of the collaborative work?

Would the entity make profit, even if it is not considered the author,
from the collaborative work as a publisher or licensor of the whole
work (in the same way an author always has the right to make comercial
use of his own work when licensed non-comercial)?

Thanks in advance.
