I can't speak for Ross, but here is my opinion: If there are organizations that want to enter into a formal CLA by which they grant rights for their content to be used in the textbook, then IMO it makes sense to have one and only one organization be the other party to such CLAs. Then that organization could be the single licensor of all textbook materials contributed under CLAs, using the agreed-upon license (CC-BY or whatever). There may also be other organizations (or individuals) that do not want to use a CLA when contributing materials. They can simply license their material directly to the public under the agreed-upon license.
