I am glad you replied, since this is a proper place to discuss this issue,
not a random G+  conversation.

So have a look at the page listing the terms we are offering our images
under: http://openclipart.org/may-clipart-be-used-comparison
Do you agree with them, all of them, or do you think some of them do not
apply to your submissions?

Thank you.

Yes, you are reading it wrong, it says Related Rights include the moral
rights, that's a quote from the full legal text of the license:

"Copyright and Related Rights include, but are not limited to, the
following: [...] moral rights retained by the original author(s) and/or
performer(s);"
(http://creativecommons.org/publicdomain/zero/1.0/legalcode)

Point 1. lists the rights and then point 2. waives them.
