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...@tib.bs> 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?  That's at https://opensource.org/license/0bsd
