development of an education license or license option for Creative Commons

[David Wiley <david.wiley AT usu.edu>]

Everyone,

I've had no feedback whatsoever on the following proposal for a 
standalone license:

- Require educational use as per the education use clause drafted and
discussed on this list,

- Require attribution as per the present option in the standard CC
infrastructure (because academics expect citations and references),

- Disallow commercial use as per the present option in the standard CC
infrastructure (because this is what educational licenses intuitively
mean to most people), and

- Allow modifications of your work as long as others share alike as per
the present option in the standard CC infrastructure (because this is
the spirit of teaching and learning -- passing on  what you know to
others who build upon and improve it).

I'll also propose that we request something in the neighborhood of Navy 
/ Midnight Blue for our button, as I think it might appear more 
"respectable" than orange.

Thoughts?

D
