This says a little too much. It doesn't actually require public domain status, but it requires something very very close. However, one can license all the rights that the public has under public domain without actually making the work public domain. It's not actually public domain though; copyright gets retained by the original owner in such a case. One might say "effectively public domain" for example. If we want some kind of clarification for the use of other Debian developers, we could say "effectively public domain; not even the BSD or X licenses would be combinable with this license." Thomas
