The CC IP option was approved on the BoT call today.  Those of you who were
awaiting this license (there are many of you!) should now be in good shape
to drive your charters to approval.  The license text, again, is as follows:


*Option Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike *



[Can be used for any Discussion Group or the development of output of a Work
Group other than Technical Specifications.]



The definitions of Contributed and Licensed Materials are supplemented to
include Discussion Groups as well as Work Groups, so any use of Work Group
is to also refer to Discussion Group.



You agree that to the extent to which Work Group or Discussion Group output
constitutes a copyrightable work distinct from any Participant's copyright
interests in Licensed Materials included as part of such output or from
which they are derived, the copyright in such output of a Work Group or
Discussion Group shall be owned by Kantara Initiative.



You agree that while participating in the Discussion Group or Work Group any
Contributed Licensed Materials are provided to Kantara Initiative and that
such Contributed Licensed Materials may be released by Kantara Initiative
under the Creative Commons 3.0 Attribution-Share Alike license as defined
by:

Unless otherwise noted when Contributed, it will be assumed to be made
entirely by you with no required attribution or other encumbrances.
