An opinion posted on debian-legal found all the CC licenses non-free in the DFSG sense.
http://lists.debian.org/debian-legal/2004/07/msg01193.html

Even if one does not care about DFSG-freeness, the debian-legal post raises some valid-looking concerns about the attribution aspect of the licenses. The anti-DRM clause could be better as well.

Was there any follow-up from the CC side? Are the BY and BY-SA licenses going to be fixed (assuming CC agrees there are bugs)? I searched the list archives but did not find anything definitive.
