Public domain means that the copyright has been rescinded, and you should never do that, because it means that others can freely exploit the work against your wish. >From what I can see, ISMLP has works for which the copyright has expired, so >that is in the public domain, then. But as others have pointed out here, they >also admit works to submitted under a Creative Commons license, which is then >still under copyright. There you should check what time duration they require - if you have the copyright, you decide the commercial redistribution terms at all times. So if you put it up there, and want to change it later, make sure there will be no problems there.
