You aren't required to use a copyright notice with MIT-0, or (if you think you need the copyright line for some reason, it's certainly not required from a Fedora allowance or SPDX representation perspective) you can put whatever you want in the copyright notice like "Copyright I don't claim any copyright" or what have you.
That is not at all clear, so thank you for saying that.
The Unlicense is a fairly popular non-license license that contains "release into the public domain" rhetoric if that's what you're looking for. We wouldn't recommend this but you can see that there are zillions of legacy public domain dedication formulations that have been allowed in Fedora.
The Unlicense is very interesting; thanks for the reference. I think it basically says what I was trying to.
Just to be clear, I'm reading the second sentence as a recommendation against just lifting one of the many public domain dedications that are allowed or coming up with my own, as opposed to being a recommendation against the Unlicense.
