No it's not. Commons doesn't approve every acceptable license in the world, only the ones that come across our desk. This one's controversial. Just because Commons hasn't accepted it yet doesn't mean we never will.
It's non free. I fails to see why there should be any change of position.
The world is not "free". Moral rights exist and make a large part of Commons files unfree - whether we accept it or not. I think we should accept it.
BTW, why is it that requiring attribution (an inelianable moral right) is considered free while requiring other inalienable moral rights is unfree? Should we not abandon CC-BY licences alltoghetr? (Not to mention copyleft/share alike licenses where the author refuses to release a substantial part of his economic rights.)
