So those people that have been importing cc-by-sa go "what if" and
conclude that most of their efforts for the last few years have been
for nothing end up loosing all?

There is no single license that will allow everyone everywhere to be
happy with the outcome, the only guarantee for some is the status
quo...

He seems to be doing a good job of offending Australians and anyone
else that has been involved with either importing or cleaning up
imports in the past...

I'm not the one pushing for major license changes, if anything I'm
pushing back against them because I disagree, not only with the
proposed changes, but the way some people are going about them.
