Thomas,

It was *having* attribution that was the problem. The deed says "*
Attribution*. You must attribute the work in the manner specified by the
author or licensor." and I suppose it is possible to say "No attribution
required". But I am told many projects shy away from contributions under the
CC licence because of 'attribution creep', the requirement to keep and
manage huge lists of contributors.
