Thank you for this clarification, Gregor.

I think that what I mean to suggest is a limited time for the CC license, after which the item would go to the public domain rather than fall back into copyright.

These proposals remind me of an older, now-defunct CC tool called Founder's Copyright, which was limited to 14 years with a possible 14 year extension. Obviously that is no longer promoted, if it still even exists.

Mike, it looks like its earlier URL is now gone: http://www.creativecommons.org/projects/founderscopyright. I've found some press releases about it and such. Maybe talking about what didn't work with timed licenses would be illustrative in a discussion about implementing them now?

Thanks,

Parker
