I need to point out that CC0 licenses are problematic in many jurisdictions, as there is no simple way to dedicate a work to the public domain. The correct way in for example France or Germany would be to use a permissive FOSS license. Let us avoid the mine field of public domain. Best, Mirko. -- Mirko Boehm | mi...@kde.org | KDE e.V.
