Hi, Christian.

Sorry all for the own reply-reply.

I re-read the question and I got into a doubt: if by "creative letter
necklaces consisting of one single letter" you mean licensing your
necklaces with Creative Commons, (if I am not wrong) you can license your
necklaces under CC, but you have to state that the letter of the necklace
is under ASLv2 and comply with the points 4.a-4.d of my last email, giving
the copy of the license for the letter, the notices, etc.

Best Regards,

Alfonso Nishikawa
