Eric,

Yes, it has been considered in the past. There even have been conference
calls between the LWG and CC about this subject.

Currently it is unknown what that this license will look like. Looking at
the current situation, the ODbL is a step forward from the current CC-BY-SA
2.0. When (in due time) CC4 proofs to be a better license then ODbL, we
could change to this license. The Contributor Terms makes this possible.

Changing to ODbL or CC4 (possibly in the future) does not change the
presence of the Contributor Terms.

cheers,
Henk
