In my understanding, it would need an update to the CC license itself, which would need to be done by CC, and then have the license be adopted by the Foundation together with the community
@Denny If we need the support of CC on this, there is no harm on asking for it. In a way the problem that we are having is something that will benefit others if it gets addressed in the proper way, at the source. In my opinion, a CC license that would allow for data mining as CC0 would be most helpful, and not only for the Wikimedia movement.
But as said, I would be rather troubled by such an approach.
Do you care to explain why does it bother you to clarify the license?
Of course there might be the case that with the current license it is enough, so I am indeed very interested in knowing the perspective of legal counsel on this.
