Development of Creative Commons licenses

[Mia Garlick <mia AT creativecommons.org>]

Dear All,

On Thursday November 17, 2005, CC posted a proposed amendment to the  
ShareAlike license provisions of CC licenses (http:// 
lists.ibiblio.org/pipermail/cc-licenses/2005-November/002816.html, in  
case you missed it). The proposed amendment generated a considerable  
amount of very detailed discussion, debate and analysis on the list —  
all of which has been tremendously useful to assist in better framing  
the proposed language and, also, in understanding where the potential  
difficulties and issues with the proposed amendment may lie.

In an effort to try to respond to large volume of comments, I have  
attempted to distill the main arguments and concerns (that were not  
necessarily fully address by list members themselves) in the attached  
table and then included a specific response to each one that  
hopefully address each of them. If there is an argument or concern  
that you think I have missed, then please let me know so that I can  
also prepare a response to it as well. I welcome further discussion  
of the attached responses.

Regards,

Mia Garlick
CC General Counsel
