Here are some thoughts that are rolling around in my head:

1.  Derivative works:

In a situation where someone uses my parts in an LCad program to create a
model and make pretty pictures of it, I don't want to restrict in any way
their claim to copyrights of those pictures or even the model file (as
long as use of that model file needs the parts library to be viewed.)

If that person were to distribute their model in a way that the parts
library was not needed (for example inlining all the parts) then the
information about the authorship of the parts should be included in such a
distribution.

Any application which transforms the parts library (i.e. LeoCAD, some VMRL
converter, or L3P) should also include information about part authorship.
I know L3P does this nicely, what about LeoCAD?

Also, you need to make sure printing instructions is covered reasonably.

And printing instructions for inclusion in a published work for commercial sale.
Eg. an idea book with LCAD instructions.
