copyright as some of us are, it genuinely doesn't hurt anyone for those
works to be tagged CC-BY-SA. They can still be reused widely, Adam gets
credit for his hard work, and everyone is happy.
Someone proposed such a tag on Commons for the NPG images (PD in US,
CC-by or whatever elsewhere), and supporters happened to include me
and DCoetzee, but quite a lot of people strenuously objected. (I don't
have a link to hand.) But I'm sure Adam's diplomatic skills will
convince people the proposal should be resurrected.
