The public domain is *exceedingly* problematic. Many juristictions do not have any legal process for putting things into the public domain before the standard copyright expiry, or even prohibit the attempt to surrender such rights. That's why the Creative Commons folks have their CC0 licence, which seems to be the most appropriate for this case. https://creativecommons.org/share-your-work/public-domain/cc0/ _______________________________________________ Python-ideas mailing list -- python-ideas@python.org To unsubscribe send an email to python-ideas-le...@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman3/lists/python-ideas.python.org/ Message archived at https://mail.python.org/archives/list/python-ideas@python.org/message/U3SMXGIWEXUKPN5QW2WR4NL2RPXACEVG/ Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
