Development of Creative Commons licenses

[Rob Myers <robmyers AT mac.com>]

(I am not a lawyer, I am not CC.)

The only other license attribute compatible with SA is NC, NonComercial.

You cannot re-license NonCommercial work under a commercial license (igoring 
fair use). Therefore the two SA licenses (BY-SA and BY-SA-NC) are mutually 
incompatible.

So with SA, you can only combine BY-SA work with other BY-SA work, and 
BY-SA-NC work with other BY-NC-SA.

I have a question on the Share-alike attribute.

 

If a new work is created comprising of 2 assets both of which are governed by CC licenses with a share-alike attribute but which differ in their other attributes, how is the new work to be licensed? In other words, which of the 2 asset licenses will govern the new work’s license?
