Yes, but the simple fact is that in 2003 digital content is generally
for music, video, images, or text. You have good points about
non-digital works, which aren't addressed yet on the CC site at all.

(BTW, I'm wondering how to volunteer to do this, write things for the
site, etc. Any pointers, anyone?)

I had a whole list of other things after each of these, most of which
you repeat. Why?

Yes.

Well, it makes sense from a standpoint of: what will people be allowed
to do with my stuff? What can I do with CC-licensed stuff? It's a lot
easier to say, "This is a Collective Work, this is a Derivative Work"
than to say, "These are the things you can do with by-nc-sa, these are
the things you can do with by-nd-nc", or whatever.
