I maintain a package, anarch [1], which is licensed under CC0.
For what it's worth, in the upstream readme, the author expresses
their intent for the project to be placed in the public domain: [2]

So I guess my question is: what do I do with it?
1) Can the package stay as-is, with a "CC0-1.0" license tag, basically
grandfathered in?
2) Can the package stay, but with the license tag changed to
"LicenseRef-Fedora-PublicDomain"?
3) No-go and should be retired?
4) Please submit an issue in fedora-license-data to have the "usage
rights" reviewed - this may be OK.
