On a side note: I just created a new project on Google Code. I was surprised at how small the selection of licenses are. Apparently Google is trying to reduce license proliferation in FOSS projects. While that's a noble goal, I think a vital segment of the FOSS crowd being overlooked are those who dedicate their works to the Public Domain. There should be at least an option to revoke all licensing or release without a license, just a disclaimer. Wow, that’s quite collective…
