[task #16104] Submission of Kissinger 2

[Ineiev]

Follow-up Comment #4, task #16104 (project administration):

[comment #3 comment #3:]
> There is no 'kissinger2ftest.pdf' in there, there's BDF.

Sorry, I meant bdf.


> BDF is based on a text-like format, and the copyright notice in there is
simply "public domain".

I see no such text there.

Please distinguish copyright and license notices, those are two separate
things. GNU documentation on legal matters
<https://www.gnu.org/prep/maintain/html_node/Legal-Matters.html> may be useful
for you.

> The bdf file is generated with makekissinger2.cpp . What copyright notice
would I use for public domain?

There should be just a notice recording its public domain status,  authors and
anything else that is relevant,
https://www.gnu.org/prep/maintain/html_node/Non_002dFSF_002dCopyrighted-Package.html#Non_002dFSF_002dCopyrighted-Package
https://www.gnu.org/prep/maintain/html_node/Copyright-Notices.html#Copyright-Notices

> Also, some other public domain licenses like the Unlicense and CC0 also have
a warranty disclaimer. So why wouldn't that be compatible in this case?

The Unlicense and CC0 aren't licenses at all, they are public domain
dedications, https://www.gnu.org/licenses/license-list.html#Unlicense

However, you are right, the Unlicense does contain such disclaimers (CC0
doesn't); probably this is acceptable.
