I have some pieces of software which I always intended to release to the public domain. I understand that it not possible in all jurisdictions, so in the past I would allow CC0 in this case and used the following license statement: # Originally written by Jason Tibbitts <j@xxxxxx> in 2016. # Donated to the public domain. If you require a statement of license, please # consider this work to be licensed as "CC0 Universal", any version you choose. Now, if course Fedora decided a couple of years ago that we can't use CC0 for code. Is there a Fedora-approved method for disclaiming copyright? I would like to do this the right way (in part because this software is used by Fedora and I would like to package it for Fedora), but it seems contradictory to use something like MIT-0 because the first line is literally "Copyright <YEAR> <COPYRIGHT HOLDER>". Does 0BSD work?
