Creative Commons Aotearoa New Zealand discussion

[Jasper Bryant-Greene <jasper AT album.co.nz>]

Maybe I'm missing something, but I can't find any other countries on the 
CC worldwide page that actually have their own websites. They all seem 
to just have a page under creativecommons.org/worldwide/. Can someone 
point me in the right direction?

As far as the site goes, I'm keen to see profiles/showcases of any NZers 
releasing works under CC licenses highlighted. I could probably help 
with tracking down some of these people.

I'd also like to see some degree of conformance to web standards with 
the website; for future maintenance's sake, it might be a good idea to 
separate presentation & content, etc. Naturally I understand that what's 
there right now is just a placeholder :)
