@JoshData Very cool. And the report cites several examples of CC0 already being used for federal datasets. Perhaps the U.S. federal government is really turning a corner on this!

I updated HISTORY.md in https://github.com/unitedstates/licensing/commit/0763a315afa0b6091e4d27029a528ae33f9ab33d to mention it, along with CC's joining last month.
