I agree with you Paul about the need for best practice guidelines by
CC NZ. Luckily we have already drafted and designed new 'how to' pages
for the CC NZ website upgrade that cover these sorts of issues. The
new site is due to be live by mid June, just in time for the 'Building
an Australasian Commons' Conference.
