Hi Paul, Frankly speaking, "Debian's opinion" on the CC licenses does not exist. There is the empirical observation that this or that CC license is accepted or rejected from our archive, with both false positives and false negatives, and there is not any document that presents logically and clearly the facts behind the FTP team's choice of accepting version 3.0 and rejecting older versions. Given that the difference between the accepted and rejected license is so thin, I think that we can not blame people being unsatisfied in one direction or the other and telling it repeatedly their opinion on that matter. If you do not like this, please write a convincing and authoritative explanation of "Debian's opinion", that will close the debate.
