New license request: CC-PDM [SPDX-Online-Tools]

1. License Name: Public Domain Mark 1.0 Universal
2. Short identifier: CC-PDM CC-PDM-1.0
3. License Author or steward: Creative Commons
4. Comments:

• This deed is maintained by Creative Commons, a well-known license steward with most (all?) of its other licenses on the SPDX License List.

• This deed (Public Domain Mark 1.0 Universal) is one of the two replacements for the older deprecated Public Domain Dedication and Certification (PDDC) which is already on the SPDX license list. (The other replacement is CC0, which is also already registered on the SPDX list.)

• This deed intends to be used by TechSmart (a company I represent) to mark most of the works it is using from Project Gutenberg, which has many works whose copyright has expired in at least the United States and likely worldwide as well. Therefore I have linked below to both 1. a Project Gutenberg work and 2. TechSmart's Curriculum page to indicate its planned usage of this deed.

• The deed is reusable, intended to be used by anyone.

• The deed is stable, since its introduction circa 2010.

(Note to self: If/when this license request is approved, I can change TechSmart internal identifiers for this license from "LicenseRef-CC-PDM" to just "CC-PDM", or whatever the final identifier is.)

Comment
+1 to add. Since the information source already carries a version, I would include the version in the id: CC-PDM-1.0

[davidfstr]

I would include the version in the id: CC-PDM-1.0

Agreed. I see that the other Creative Commons licenses generally include the version number, even for 1.0 license versions.

Followups:

• ✅ I'll update the requested "Short identifier" in the opening post to this thread.
• 👉 There may be additional work to update the identifier in the XML which the SPDX-Online-Tools may have already generated. I do not know how to update that.
