From: Klaus Graf <[log in to unmask]> Date: Tue, Oct 27, 2015 at 12:04 PM In June 2015 there was a little debate in this list on CC-licenses. http://listserv.crl.edu/wa.exe?A2=LIBLICENSE-L;419856ed.1506 My position on CC-BY-ND was: "ND means: only re-use 1:1 is allowed, no excerpts, no use of single figures."

This is a correct answer for CC 4.0 but not for 3.0 and earlier licenses. Note that there isn't an "in part"! I wasn't familiar enough with the relatively new 4.0 license to know that change.
