Default button and text generated by http://creativecommons.org/license/
describe the exact license used -- almost anyway -- the buttons leave
out version and jurisdiction. (I agree the previous generic-looking and
-reading defaults were suboptimal.)

How can we further encourage licensors to be specific? Suggestions
welcome, but be patient -- it always takes awhile to get buy in from CC,
CC affiliates and the greater CC community, which includes a whole lot
more than just frequent posters to the cc-licenses list (not that we
don't love you all).
