Why isn’t it prominently listed on the CC website, and under the license chooser? While technically it’s not a CC license, certainly it’s related, and on this site.

For that matter, why isn’t this an option on flickr? What is the resistance to submitting things to the public domain?

d.i.

Keep up the public domain and CC0 stuff going! Too much attention is given to the copyleft/sharealike stuff, which forces you into the system. Modern public domain material is seriously lacking. Keep up the good work!

Text on deeds can change, but it is just explanatory. The ‘legalcode’ never changes once published. This is true of all CC licenses and CC0. For the latter, this means http://creativecommons.org/publicdomain/zero/1.0/legalcode will never change.

You can see changelogs leading up to the final version at http://code.creativecommons.org/viewsvn/ccwordpress/trunk/www/legalcode/

Can CC change their deeds under the same version number? Automatic upgrades don’t happen with the licenses, why would it happen with CC0? Can CC dump the waiver portion and still call it CC0 1.0 Universal? Is a “changelog” available on the site to see the changes since Original CC0 1.0?

Thank you, Dan

This is where the post discusses CC0. I’ll do a followup explanation of branding soon.

Which one is the new Public Domain Mark being touted here?

xbeta, thank you! However, you ought to be using the CC0 public domain dedication, since for better or worse, your works by default start out under copyright. Go to http://creativecommons.org/choose/zero or just replace ‘mark’ with ‘zero’ in the link and image URLs.

Mike

Just now, I changed it into the new Public Domain.
As a volunteer focused on software skills, I think there’s nothing really belong to me instead of all users.

Thank you CC.
and thanks for all the CC contents created by people all over the world.
