Good point. Perhaps an additional comment like:

In order to avoid the listing of all contributing part authors it is sufficient
to give credit to "the LDraw Parts Library" in Derivative Works in lieu of such
a list.

As an addition to the end of the licence?


All of the parts authors would have to agree to that, because (and my knowledge
is limited so if I mistake any assumptions let me know) the copyright of the
part file seems to be held by the parts author not the LDraw Parts Library or
any LDraw entity.  What you are suggesting is like crediting a museum for a
painting by Monet, to put it in perspective of the License.  I guess you might
be able to circumvent that by putting in language such as: "This work was
created using the LDraw Parts Library.  The authors of the parts used can be
found at ldraw.org."
