Joanne, there is plenty of precedent for this in the software world where millions of folks create software and release it for collaboration or use by others. you can release it for non-commercial use or you can have it wide open (so Dolly can record it and solely profit from it!)

if you are not familiar with Creative Commons (http://creativecommons.org/), that would be a good place to start reading as they have a complete process for licensing copyrightable works. should you decide to proceed you could explore what they offer, and then set up your collaborative network using that (or some other) as the basis/requirement for participating.
