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

[Don Joyce <dj AT webbnet.com>]

This is too obtuse for America.
You want a universal flash of recognition that the name evokes. The 
term, Cut and Paste is that now, thanks to computers. No one is 
really going to decide what this license is until they read it's 
provisions are they? But they'll know where to look, based on what 
they want to do.
Also, it's cute.
