Hi Luis and everybody else,
thank you so much for sharing this on the list! This is just so well stated, that I feel the need to quote it here: "CC licenses are a patch, not a fix, for the problems of the copyright system." One simply has to respect and love them for such a clear staement.
As to our own universe, no matter whether we are looking at creating and disseminating educational materials or pursuing the visionary staement of the WMF, we have to deal with the "problems of the copyright system", which simply wasn't created with the digital age in mind. There are certainly many issues on and off the internet, but copyright is our core concern and the one we can have the greatest impact on. We're just credible experts when it comes to copyright (trust me, Wikimedians know more about it than any other group I've seen, CC exluded).
I myself also particularly like that they included and described the diverse lobbying roles between HQ and the affiliates and also their limitation. With one document CC clarifies its external position and internal task sharing.
This would be definitely on my wishlist for Wikimedia and I'd be happy to do everything I can to make it happen. This being said, should we keep the discussion here or would it be perhaps a good idea to put this on Wikimedia-l?
