Yes, they should be out soon.

You don't legally need the copyright symbol but it doesn't hurt. You do need 
a copyright notice as the CC licenses are copyright licenses and you need to 
identify yourself for BY. There's a page on "marking your content" buried 
somewhere on the main CC site, I've mentioned to CC that they should unbury 
it. :-)

>c) do we need to assert authorship?

It depends. The BY clause simulates "paternity" (authorship attribution), and 
some argue that moral rights are against the spirit of the SA term. So it's 
up to you: probably not for SA, probably for ND.
