In ome of the code I have written I've included the following notice:
" Authorship and License ----------------------
All of this code was originally written by Jason Tibbitts tibbs@math.uh.edu and has been donated to the public domain. If you require a statement of license, please consider this work to be licensed as "CC0 Universal", any version you choose. "
Obviously I really don't want to be concerned with copyright issues on this code. Could someone comment on whether this is a reasonable way to accomplish that, and if it is, which License: tag Fedora would use for this code? I have always understood the point behind CC0, but until recently I hadn't actually read it and was saddened to find that it took so much boilerplate just to say I want to release copyright.

IANAL, but that looks appropriate to me. I might s/donated to/placed in/ but that's just me.
