Not what I was trying to explain, but thanks for pointing it out because it gives me the chance to try again to make more clear my point. Two different CC licenses:
- CC-BY-SA (Attribution-ShareAlike), this one exists already, and the terms are basically that you must give appropriate credit and you must use the same license. You are free to share and adapt.
- Contribute Alike (to a common space), this one does not exists. The proposed terms are that you must contribute to the common public space as much value as you are taking from it, and when you do so you have the rights to use the material. Whatever you release based on the original material can be in turn used by anyone who also has contributed to the common space the same ammount of perceived value.
The advantages are:
- It creates a snowball effect by incentivating to contribute in order to use existing materials
- It is more fair because what I donate to the common space will be matched by others
The disadvantages are:
- It requires assigning a (virtual) value both to the data, services, files provided and to the ones received. And also keeping track of the "payments" in kind.
- The person/organization wanting to use the data might not have anything of value for the commons (but still it could be annotated as "debt" to the community)
I invite you to let it sink in, and imagine how it could work in practice at a large scale.
