Considering that Free Software and Open Source has worked fine with English-only licenses, that non-Americans are routinely using the existing U.S./"Generic" CC licenses and that CC now has a "New Generic" license draft that is designed to work globally, what's the point of having ports of the 3.0 series instead of using the "New Generic" with English as the governing language everywhere?
