No it's not. Commons doesn't approve

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.)
