no way, it is totally different - or do you recognise 'Public

        Software placed in the public domain is compatible with the
 GPL, in that it can be combined with software licensed under the GPL,
 and since it provides the users with the four essential freedoms, it
 is also free software.  It also happens to be OSS, since it meets the
 requirements of the definition of OSS.
