Why should we care about being compatible with the GPL?
AFAICT, the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 3.0 Unported License (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/ ) complies with the requirements listed in the licensing policy ( http://www.ubuntu.com/community/ubuntustory/licensing) .

Moreover, the GPL recommendation say that we should not use CC for software, but it's OK to use it for educational works. I have two projects that deal with educational work, and I would like to use a CC license for them without waiting months for a Launchpad administrator review.
