Just to be clear, I don't currently have those concerns re GPL versions and
Free Software. (I do know that anything is possible though but that same
danger exists with future versions of BY-SA.) I do have some concerns with
respect to the Freedom of non-Software works under current and especially
future GPL licenses. (Even here, these concerns were mostly in light of a
hoped for strengthing of BY-SA copyleft protections for photos and the like
which it looks like we are not going to get this go around.)

I may just have to experiment with BY-NC-SA with a right to commercial use...
I hate the thought but I am having it.

all the best,

drew
