Development of the Creative Commons Sampling license (or license option)

[Chris Grigg <chris AT grigg.org>]

I like 'cut and paste' too.  Not just to the point, also laden with 
nice connotations.

Media-format-neutral.  Implies taking a section and not the whole. 
De-mystifies the creative process.  Concrete.  Down-to-earth. 
Hearkens back to analog tape splicing, yet emphasizes the 
computer-driven urgency of the initiative.  Grounded in common 
experience, not just art-world or media-world or law-world lingo.
