RMS on the Creative Commons

With good reason, RMS and others have been critical of licenses offered by the Creative Commons forbidding the noncommercial sharing of complete works. With this news RMS says:
"This is a big step forward, and I can now support CC." (email 5/07)
And in typical fashion he offered some sound advice:
"However, the remaining CC licenses, while all ok in my opinion for some uses, remain very different. So we still need to encourage people to say which CC license they are using or talking about."

defending software freedom...by blade

Resulting from an xkcd webcomic that gave me a chuckle, RMS receives a bedside buddy to help bring about a GNU dawn. My question: has anyone sent nunchucks to Torvalds yet?
