Great news about the change to the CC license. Thank-you. It would be kewl to see Leo translate your work to Chinese... I'm a believer of using a CC-BY-SA. I'd certainly like to be a fly on the wall to overhear the discussion between you and Stephen about the use of the NC... if it comes up. (maybe if you are talking over the phone or email, you could skype or blog the conversation and publish it. If you include UofM policy it could be an interesting conversation for others to listen or read about...)
