Yes I've tries that. It does not go as deep into the question as this thread.

I mean the fact that a copyright owner can go rogue and change a license alone without asking if the other copyright owners would agree and at the same time all the copyright owners must act in cooperation in order to enforce a license. This is is a sad state of affairs.
