This is still not the first Microsoft site licensed under a CC license, but it was very cool to read this from Ray Ozzie in his blog entry announcing Microsoft's latest CC-licensed spec, Simple Sharing Extension: Writes Ray: "I’m very pleased that Microsoft is supporting the Creative Commons approach ...."

Actually, Microsoft first used the CC license a while back for the RSS/SLX spec document:

Whenever I see a spec being offered under some kind of license, I can't help but wonder whether the publisher thinks it's offering rights to the document that describes the format, or rights to the format itself.

Should formats be owned? It's a question I hope Mr. Lessig will address someday.
