First, Creative Commons created and maintains both the CC-BY and CC-BY- 
SA licenses, which I assume you consider part of free culture.

Second, CC fosters and promotes these licenses and exploration of the  
goals cental to free culture.

Just because the organization doesn't narrowly and singlemindedly  
promote your own personal and particular definition of "free culture"  
doesn't mean they don't have anything to do with it. Moreover, it  
doesn't mean that people on this list won't be interested to hear  
about opportunites regarding CC.

Would you consider the FSF having something to do with free culture?  
Despite their publishing non-free licenses such as the GFDL w/  
invariant sections? And despite all of their licenses, just like all  
of the CC licenses, depending on copyright?

Can you supply some other organizations that aren't "copyright  
advocacy" organizations that would be of interest to this list?
