Another text discrepancy in the 2.0 licenses: by, by-nc, by-nc-nd, and by-nc-sa all have this line:
>     rights agency or designated agent (e.g. Harry Fox Agency),
In the same place, by-nd and by-sa both say:
>     rights society or designated agent (e.g. Harry Fox Agency),
I have no frickin' idea what the difference is between a rights agency and a rights society, but I figure that some distinction is intended, since they all mention:
>     rights society (e.g. ASCAP, BMI, SESAC)
Anyways, my guess is that "rights agency" is the correct term here. I'd propose that in future versions of the by-nd and by-sa the words "rights agency" be used instead of "rights society".
