#1: Doesn't the FPCA provide for this anyway, in the absence of some 
standardized agreement? It seems like a lot of overhead in terms of keeping 
track of who has agreed to publish under those terms. It's either a new FAS 
group where people have agreed to a license, or revalidating existing fas 
groups, or... just checking as we already do to make sure people have signed 
the FPCA. (I assume that Magazine is hooked up to FAS in some fashion.)

#2:  CC BY-NC-ND 3.0 is listed in https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Licensing as a 
license that isn't acceptable for Fedora. I realize you're citing 4.0 here, and 
we don't have guidance on 4.0 in the wiki, but I have to imagine it's not going 
to be much of a change. The NC part is still NC... as you said, it's the most 
restrictive, and at least in my opinion, restrictiveness isn't exactly 
freedom-enabling :)

Copied the legal list for love and guidance.
