I have asked for clarification about the phrase "We do not object to a 
commercial plan in principle, as long as it does not unreasonably 
impede non-commercial use by licence holders." I read that as 
suggesting they would accept/encourage licensing that forbids 
commercial use, which would be consistent with other "Creative 
Commons" work.

I've experienced a large range of boundaries been used for "commercial 
use" in the past, when doing radio work, so this also worries me 
because of that.

This is why I only write "appears to". I will be happy if told by the 
letter's authors that my fears are wrong and it's just accidentally 
unclear.
