[pp.int.general] A Swedish Rights Management organization now accepts some CC licences

[Valentin Villenave]

Hi everybody,

Since Sweden seems to be leading the way these days, I thought some of
you might be interested in commenting about the following piece of
news: a RIAA-like organization (the STIM) has just announced "that
their members will be allowed to use CC-NC licenses. They call it a
two year test period but they also realise that CC licenses are
forever for the works that are licensed during the test."

I think this is the smartest move any of these societies has ever
done; let's see where it leads from now.
