It is nonsense to speak of "the Creative Commons License".
That project publishes more than a dozen licenses, and they have
essentially nothing in common.  If you speak of Creative Commons
and you don't say which license, you have actually given no
information about what users will be able to do with this document.

This confusion is widespread and very harmful.  Creative Commons'
activities encourage the confusion, which is why I do not support them
or use their licenses.  If you use them, please help prevent the confusion.
