Agreed - a community needs to have a standard of practice in order to,
well... practice! And CC seems to be the way to go. The hard part is this:
videobloggers come in all different varieties. Some are posting thoughts and
conversation-starters (sorta like text blogs). Others think of their posts
more like an online version of a tv show. And then everything in-between.

How do you get consensus on that? Where do you even start (well, besides
discussing it here - that's probably a good start)?

Good thinking, either way!
