Development of Creative Commons licenses

[Nova Christopher <n23ova AT yahoo.com>]

But "my label" is not a business or corporation. 
There is no money being made.  And no commercial
advantage to it.  I don't license the music like
Warner Brothers.  I don't license it at all.  It is
all basically "share and share alike."  I don't even
have a paypal "donate" button on my site =)

So I'm back to not worrying about it...
