Count me as a supporter of licensing as CC-BY-SA: it encourage others to
remix our videos and also allows us to include in our videos stuff made
by other people and licensed as CC-BY-SA.
From all the CC licenses, it seems the only viable options are CC-BY
and CC-BY-SA (the other, NC and ND are *not free*).
Using a CC license could work also as a marketing vehicle, licenses as
OPL are largely unknown, when people hear about something released under
such license will react like "whatever, that is *some* content released
under *some* license", but using CC will create more buzz.
Also, we can try a collaboration with ccLiveContent (is that project
still alive?)
