I've always thought public domain was unworkable.
There is a problem with CC-BY - in that derivative works may have to include the names of all people who worked on the piece - unless the contributor agreement is worded correctly.

The consensus of users I have spoken with on English Wikinews about the license is to accept CC-by or any other licensing and to move on this issue rapidly. And, universally, the next words are "will this allow us to use fair use graphics?"
I agree with the license, and the clause allowing Wikimedia Foundation to relicense at a later date. It will need to be vetted by the legal team, and appropriate language inserted into the site. Speedy implementation would be nice.
