    I don’t see the problem. This can be forked, enhanced, updated, and modified and that version released with an appropriate copyleft license.

    Sure; some companies will do the same with utterly horrific copyright licenses. That’s fine; as it’s in the public domain. We just need some group to work to provide an appropriate copyleft licensed version.

    Ideally we should be getting on this fast; but we all know FOSS work isn’t going to be fast if it’s done by volunteers. Some funds might need raising.

    In essence; CC0 is an ultimate copyleft license; as it does not even preclude the use of copyrighting improvements on variant works.
