Hi all,
so some time ago... oh my, it's been a year already. Either way -
Creative Commons Zero has been re-classified in Fedora
as allowed for content, but not for code. [0]
I maintain a package, anarch [1], which is licensed under CC0.
For what it's worth, in the upstream readme, the author expresses
their intent for the project to be placed in the public domain: [2]
tl;dr: everything in this repository is CC0 + a waiver of all rights,
completely public domain as much as humanly possible, do absolutely anything you want
...
I therefore release everything in this repository under CC0 1.0
+ a waiver of all other IP rights (including patents), which is as follows:
...
So I guess my question is: what do I do with it?
1) Can the package stay as-is, with a "CC0-1.0" license tag, basically
grandfathered in?
2) Can the package stay, but with the license tag changed to
"LicenseRef-Fedora-PublicDomain"?
3) No-go and should be retired?
Thanks in advance,
A.FI.
