This draft removes the "educational institution option" but maintains the language which makes it clear that the educational use license IS NOT JUST FOR TEACHERS AND STUDENTS. This is basically the "open education license."

<DRAFT 2>

If you make your work available under the Education License, you require that teachers, students, and others directly associated with a formal educational institution, as well as mentors, tutors, self-learners, and others who may not be directly associated with a formal educational institution:

- Cite you as the source of the work,

- Make only noncommercial uses of your work which primarily and purposively facilitate learning, and

- Distribute any modified versions of your work

+ under this same license, and
+ include in the distribution a copy of the original work which allows users to determine what changes you made to the derived work (inclusion by link / reference is sufficient)

</DRAFT>

This draft removes the option because, though a few people have complimented efforts to harmonize the different viewpoints (thanks for the encouragement!), I've yet to hear anyone argue intensely in its favor. If you want choice back in the license, let's here it.
