Development of Creative Commons licenses

[Rob Myers <robmyers AT mac.com>]

NOTE TO CC: the "tutorial" link from the "choose a license" page links  
to the wrong page! And I don't see how to get to the "How To Mark Your  
Content" popup that answers this question (see below).

I'm not a lawyer, this is not legal advice, I am not CC.

CC say they are working on more how to mark content information...

You have two options. You can just add the standard license block to  
the copyright notice at the front of your book. See (for example, for  
BY-SA):

	http://creativecommons.org/license/non-web-popup? 
lang=en&license_code=by-sa

Or you can do that *and* also include the text of the legal code of the  
license at the back of the book as recommended (kinda) by the FSF. It  
depend how thorough you want to be and how much room you have.

Make sure that if you're deriving from other people's work you give  
them proper credit under the BY terms.

And if you like you can put the CC "Some Rights Reserved" badge on the  
outside and/or title page of the book.
