That sounds like a good idea, maybe make it a Wikiversity course? Or run training on IRC?

While I don't agree that we need to take this away from the community
and hand it to a team of lawyers, I must say that the "practical training"
caught my eye.

Would it be possible for the Foundation to get Mike--and other people
who actually know what they're talking about--to get a "guide to
handling copyright questions" together? It would probably help a lot of
people who are unclear on some points, as well as help remove some
grey areas (like the scenario that brought us here now). This may be a
terrible idea, but I'm just throwing it out there.
