Thanks for this reference and the one to Creative Commons. Is there a 
good mailing list or on-line forum appropriate for discussing licensing 
issues? I wouldn't mind discussing my questions here as I have the 
highest regard for the participants in c.l.p, but my questions are 
mostly off topic for this list. I'm still struggling with the copyleft 
vs non-copyleft issue, for example, and there may be a more appropriate 
place to discuss this.
