I don't know if I ever put this on my website when it was in
existence, but my plan is to publish everything as CC-SA.
I also have put a lot of thought into making a public database of
contra dances. I do agree that dances are probably not copyrightable,
but my plan was to include a field for license. I was going to put on
a bit of text on the website saying something like, "This is not legal
advice, but if something is licensed by CC-NC, you're probably safe
calling it at a paid gig, but we would ask that you not publish it in
a book that you're selling."

Thanks for the links; there's a lot of good information there.
Regardless, I'd still like to know if anyone other than Seth has any
dances licensed under a CC or similar license (even if it turns out that
none of our stuff was every copyrightable anyways).
Thanks,
Sam
