You know, I was just looking at this, and everything I've read says that
CC licenses and GPL are incompatible.  This really stinks because GPL
(as I read it) doesn't require someone who alters/augments your code to
retain your attribution info.  (If this is not the case, please site the
exact wording that allows it, because I'm curious/doubtful.)

Anyone else care to comment on this?  I would prefer to release under CC
if it's GPL-compatible for this very reason.
