Hadn't seen the faq entry you refer to, thanks for that.
I gathered as much - that the cc licences don't specifically address
software. However finding the right Open Source licence is far from straight
forward. Thought that there might be a legal expert on this list who could
help us identify the best license from the long list at
http://www.opensource.org/licenses/index.php based on our requirements.
