ZC: Unfortunately MIT is the exception, not the rule. I am aware of OCW, am
inspired by their gift to the commons, and wish there were more institutions
like MIT out there. Even though we may well make cc.edu available to
academia,I
would hope and expect that many would choose less restrictive licensing. I
personally have only ever used by-nc-sa for my own work (where I can), and
that
is not likely to change after cc.edu passes, if it passes.
