Standards are Important

http://blog.okfn.org/2014/01/08/creative-commons-4-0-by-and-by-sa-licenses-approved-conformant-with-the-open-definition/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+okfn+%28Open+Knowledge+Foundation+Weblog%29

the Open Definition Advisory Council approved the CC 4.0 Attribution (BY) and Attribution-ShareAlike (BY-SA) International licenses as conformant with the Open Definition.

These are the open definitions that the ODAC test for, and this is the list of conforming licenses. Note that neither of the Non-Commercial or No-Derivatives FLAVORS of the CC licenses are deemed conforming.

TVOL wrote the post and note that Mike Linksvayer is behind the ODAC (just mentioning as further evidence, that I really consider superfluous, that supports my opinion in my post about CC CEOship).
