I personally like the selection of CC BY-SA. And I think CC is a great collection and the best in comprehensiveness and clear-language. I have been monitoring the domain of open licences for some time.

Having said that, do know that if you want to search for alternatives there are options. https://opensource.org/licenses https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_free_and_open-source_software_licences

I know most of the licences but not the CC (working in the ISV world remember ;) )

I changed btw to the BY-SA.. simply I did not like what CC wrote about the NC part. It is not only about commercially exploitation but also about using it in the literature that will be blocked if it is a non-free book for example.

I think that the CC-BY-SA is very close to Open Science. and you even force derivatives to use the same open licensing.
