I want to say very clearly that without the provisions included under Creative Commons 3.0 article 5, it will be very difficult for volunteer contributors to consider working for a project that makes them liable to all kinds of complaints. For that reason, the proposed "Indemnity" clause of the proposed new terms of use is a tremendous change. This sort of major change should be discussed in a very wide consultation with the community, with a "sitenotice" announcement on all projects, rather than making a surreptitious change as is being proposed on Meta.
