Development of Creative Commons licenses

We're working on just this issue, among a couple of others, in our
versioning research. Not sure yet if the answer is the exhaustive list
you suggest, or something more-open ended, but I can say that we plan to
address this (to account for compatibility across our iCommons licenses
and other "share alike"-friendly licenses). So stay tuned!

Thanks for writing in and glad we're on the same wavelength.

Glenn
