Hi All

I represent a non-profit organisation in South Africa doing work in promoting open source software in South Africa. We prove that open source software works within various contexts and then encourage risk averse organisations to continue our projects that work.

Now, we want to relase all our strategy documents, reports, etc. under a CC license so that others can benefit from our work. The licence which seems to fit most naturally is the Attribution licence.

Now, how do you enhance this license so that if an organisation makes changes to our original docs, all the changes are clearly indicated. For example, we're happy if people use our docs to develop their own strategies based on our work - what we don't want people to do is make changes to our strategy docs and then distribute them, without the recepient knowing that these are now 'unofficial' docs?

Help with this would be great appreciated.

-Thomas
