Hi,

DMTF is looking at CC BY. Is that OK? It allows commercial use.

When I'm looking at OSI approved licenses[1], CC does not come up. Is 
there a reason why?

And about the file inclusion - FYI, in current version users will have 
to download the files themselves and configure sushy to the location 
where they are downloaded. This is not very user-friendly, and in future 
we might look at improving this somehow given that we also cannot always 
rely on users having access to the Internet during installation to 
download the files automatically. But for now this is how it will work.

Regards,

Aija
