I would suggest: * Fedora should recognize CC-PDDC as a "good" license under the current system * The license tag for CC-PDDC would be CC-PDDC (not "Public Domain") * 1 and 2 would persist under the switch to SPDX identifiers * For this specific package, the license tag should be CC-PDDC (not "Public Domain"), but it is not clear that this is really what the upstream author(s) intended * Consider getting the upstream author to put the text of CC-PDDC in the LICENSE file - Richard On Wed, Jun 29, 2022 at 10:15 AM Michel Alexandre Salim <michel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > Hi Richard, Jilayne, > > Any opinion on the original question about CC-PDDC?
