Reply to comment by Holothuroid in Paizo is releasing a new creative license in response to WotC's restrictive licensing by TBTabby

"open, perpetual, and irrevocable"

CC may be open, but the last two would be important for 3rd parties

Creative commons is irrevocable and perpetual.

And as for the term:

Meaning, the CC license ends when the work becomes public domain. Which is a more correct way of saying it's perpetual.
