^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
 
CC-Zero is fairly new, and is different from CC-PD. There are many new  
issues introduced by CC0, such as:
"Unlike the Public Domain Certification, CC0 should not  be used to mark 
works already in the public domain. "

We need to have a discussion on the differences between CC-PD and CCZero.  
Most if not all Public Domain fonts in the openfontlibrary are CC-PD, not  
CCZero.
