The real issue with iCommons is it doesn't know what it wants to be and has no real sense of direction.
With no core values, no mission, no ideals it is just empty. You can't just aim to create a global common without these - otherwise you are creating something without understanding the consequences of your creation. Its mindless.
With the news that Scooptwords partners with Creative Commons to 'monetize their words"... the direction of Creative Commons is less on the creative and more on the exploitative...
RMS left Creative Commons for a reason... it looks like he was foresighted yet again...
