Development of Creative Commons licenses

["Douglas Pollard" <Dougpol1 AT adelphia.net>]

Seems to me that what we are trying to do by democratic means,  can only be 
done by a republick.  A thousand people will never be able to decide 
something  that 10 people can  make a reasonable decision on quickly. This 
will never be decided, on line.

> 2. - the freedom to copy the work so you can help your neighbor
> ("freedom 2"), at least noncommercially
> 3. - the freedom to improve the work, and release your improvements
