Development of Creative Commons licenses

for fucks sake people what are you talking about here? if you are  
really concerned about the meaning of freedom, i would suggesting  
aiming your critique at the use of the term by the US government (as  
in 'Operation Enduring Freedom'). that is where the real damage is  
done in the name of freedom. the sentence on the cc hompage is  
relatively harmless in the grand scheme of things... /paul
