+
+    CREATIVE COMMONS CORPORATION IS NOT A LAW FIRM AND DOES NOT PROVIDE
+    LEGAL SERVICES. DISTRIBUTION OF THIS DOCUMENT DOES NOT CREATE AN
+    ATTORNEY-CLIENT RELATIONSHIP. CREATIVE COMMONS PROVIDES THIS
+    INFORMATION ON AN "AS-IS" BASIS. CREATIVE COMMONS MAKES NO WARRANTIES
+    REGARDING THE USE OF THIS DOCUMENT OR THE INFORMATION OR WORKS
+    PROVIDED HEREUNDER, AND DISCLAIMS LIABILITY FOR DAMAGES RESULTING FROM
+    THE USE OF THIS DOCUMENT OR THE INFORMATION OR WORKS PROVIDED
+    HEREUNDER.
+
+Statement of Purpose
+
+The laws of most jurisdictions throughout the world automatically confer
+exclusive Copyright and Related Rights (defined below) upon the creator
+and subsequent owner(s) (each and all, an "owner") of an original work of
+authorship and/or a database (each, a "Work").
+
+Certain owners wish to permanently relinquish those rights to a Work for
+the purpose of contributing to a commons of creative, cultural and
+scientific works ("Commons") that the public can reliably and without fear
+of later claims of infringement build upon, modify, incorporate in other
+works, reuse and redistribute as freely as possible in any form whatsoever
+and for any purposes, including without limitation commercial purposes.
+These owners may contribute to the Commons to promote the ideal of a free
+culture and the further production of creative, cultural and scientific
+works, or to gain reputation or greater distribution for their Work in
+part through the use and efforts of others.
+
+For these and/or other purposes and motivations, and without any
+expectation of additional consideration or compensation, the person
+associating CC0 with a Work (the "Affirmer"), to the extent that he or she
+is an owner of Copyright and Related Rights in the Work, voluntarily
+elects to apply CC0 to the Work and publicly distribute the Work under its
+terms, with knowledge of his or her Copyright and Related Rights in the
+Work and the meaning and intended legal effect of CC0 on those rights.
+
+1. Copyright and Related Rights. A Work made available under CC0 may be
+protected by copyright and related or neighboring rights ("Copyright and
+Related Rights"). Copyright and Related Rights include, but are not
+limited to, the following:
+
+  i. the right to reproduce, adapt, distribute, perform, display,
+     communicate, and translate a Work;
+ ii. moral rights retained by the original author(s) and/or performer(s);
+iii. publicity and privacy rights pertaining to a person's image or
+     likeness depicted in a Work;
+ iv. rights protecting against unfair competition in regards to a Work,
+     subject to the limitations in paragraph 4(a), below;
+  v. rights protecting the extraction, dissemination, use and reuse of data
+     in a Work;
+ vi. database rights (such as those arising under Directive 96/9/EC of the
+     European Parliament and of the Council of 11 March 1996 on the legal
+     protection of databases, and under any national implementation
+     thereof, including any amended or successor version of such
+     directive); and
+vii. other similar, equivalent or corresponding rights throughout the
+     world based on applicable law or treaty, and any national
+     implementations thereof.
+
+2. Waiver. To the greatest extent permitted by, but not in contravention
+of, applicable law, Affirmer hereby overtly, fully, permanently,
+irrevocably and unconditionally waives, abandons, and surrenders all of
+Affirmer's Copyright and Related Rights and associated claims and causes
+of action, whether now known or unknown (including existing as well as
+future claims and causes of action), in the Work (i) in all territories
+worldwide, (ii) for the maximum duration provided by applicable law or
+treaty (including future time extensions), (iii) in any current or future
+medium and for any number of copies, and (iv) for any purpose whatsoever,
+including without limitation commercial, advertising or promotional
+purposes (the "Waiver"). Affirmer makes the Waiver for the benefit of each
+member of the public at large and to the detriment of Affirmer's heirs and
+successors, fully intending that such Waiver shall not be subject to
+revocation, rescission, cancellation, termination, or any other legal or
+equitable action to disrupt the quiet enjoyment of the Work by the public
+as contemplated by Affirmer's express Statement of Purpose.
+
+3. Public License Fallback. Should any part of the Waiver for any reason
+be judged legally invalid or ineffective under applicable law, then the
+Waiver shall be preserved to the maximum extent permitted taking into
+account Affirmer's express Statement of Purpose. In addition, to the
+extent the Waiver is so judged Affirmer hereby grants to each affected
+person a royalty-free, non transferable, non sublicensable, non exclusive,
+irrevocable and unconditional license to exercise Affirmer's Copyright and
+Related Rights in the Work (i) in all territories worldwide, (ii) for the
+maximum duration provided by applicable law or treaty (including future
+time extensions), (iii) in any current or future medium and for any number
+of copies, and (iv) for any purpose whatsoever, including without
+limitation commercial, advertising or promotional purposes (the
+"License"). The License shall be deemed effective as of the date CC0 was
+applied by Affirmer to the Work. Should any part of the License for any
+reason be judged legally invalid or ineffective under applicable law, such
+partial invalidity or ineffectiveness shall not invalidate the remainder
+of the License, and in such case Affirmer hereby affirms that he or she
+will not (i) exercise any of his or her remaining Copyright and Related
+Rights in the Work or (ii) assert any associated claims and causes of
+action with respect to the Work, in either case contrary to Affirmer's
+express Statement of Purpose.
+
+4. Limitations and Disclaimers.
+
+ a. No trademark or patent rights held by Affirmer are waived, abandoned,
+    surrendered, licensed or otherwise affected by this document.
+ b. Affirmer offers the Work as-is and makes no representations or
+    warranties of any kind concerning the Work, express, implied,
+    statutory or otherwise, including without limitation warranties of
+    title, merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non
+    infringement, or the absence of latent or other defects, accuracy, or
+    the present or absence of errors, whether or not discoverable, all to
+    the greatest extent permissible under applicable law.
+ c. Affirmer disclaims responsibility for clearing rights of other persons
+    that may apply to the Work or any use thereof, including without
+    limitation any person's Copyright and Related Rights in the Work.
+    Further, Affirmer disclaims responsibility for obtaining any necessary
+    consents, permissions or other rights required for any use of the
+    Work.
+ d. Affirmer understands and acknowledges that Creative Commons is not a
+    party to this document and has no duty or obligation with respect to
+    this CC0 or use of the Work.

As I have the increasing demand to formalize my public domain stuff, I am hereby modifying version the WPDD for personal use. I don't think it's a good idea for others to use this, because it hasn't been checked by professional lawyers yet. But anyways, here it is, out of necessity.</p>

-
-For these and/or other purposes and motivations, and without any 
-expectation of additional consideration or compensation, the person or 
-organization associating this Runxi Yu's Public Domain Dedication with 
-a Work (the "Affirmer"), to the extent that they are a holder of 
-Copyright and Related Rights in the Work, voluntarily elects to apply 
-this Runxi Yu's Public Domain Dedication to the Work and publicly 
-distribute the Work under its terms, with knowledge of their Copyright 
-and Related Rights in the Work and the meaning and intended legal 
-effect of this Runxi Yu's Public Domain Dedication on those rights.
-
-1. Copyright and Related Rights. A Work made available under this 
-Runxi Yu's Public Domain Dedication may be protected by copyright and 
-related or neighboring rights ("Copyright and Related Rights"). 
-Copyright and Related Rights include, but are not limited to, the 
-following:
-
-   i. the right to reproduce, adapt, distribute, perform, display,
-      communicate, and translate a Work;
-  ii. moral rights retained by the original author(s) and/or 
-      performer(s);
- iii. publicity and privacy rights pertaining to a person's image or
-      likeness depicted in a Work;
-  iv. rights protecting the extraction, dissemination, use and reuse 
-      of data in a Work;
-   v. database rights (such as those arising under Directive 96/9/EC 
-      of the European Parliament and of the Council of 11 March 1996 
-      on the legal protection of databases, and under any national 
-      implementation thereof, including any amended or successor 
-      version of such directive); 
-  vi. other similar, equivalent or corresponding rights throughout 
-      the world based on applicable law or treaty, and any national
-      implementations thereof.
-
-2. Waiver. To the greatest extent permitted by, but not in 
-contravention of, applicable law, Affirmer hereby overtly, fully, 
-permanently, irrevocably and unconditionally waives, abandons, and 
-surrenders all of Affirmer's Copyright and Related Rights and 
-associated claims and causes of action, whether now known or unknown 
-(including existing as well as future claims and causes of action), 
-in the Work (i) in all territories worldwide, (ii) for the maximum 
-duration provided by applicable law or treaty (including future time 
-extensions), (iii) in any current or future medium and for any number 
-of copies, and (iv) for any purpose whatsoever, including without 
-limitation commercial, advertising or promotional purposes (the 
-"Waiver"). Affirmer makes the Waiver for the benefit of each member 
-of the public at large and to the detriment of Affirmer's heirs and 
-successors, fully intending that such Waiver shall not be subject to 
-revocation, rescission, cancellation, termination, or any other legal 
-or equitable action to disrupt the quiet enjoyment of the Work by the 
-public as contemplated by Affirmer's express Statement of Purpose.
-
-3. Public License Fallback. Should any part of the Waiver for any 
-reason be judged legally invalid or ineffective under applicable law, 
-then the Waiver shall be preserved to the maximum extent permitted 
-taking into account Affirmer's express Statement of Purpose. In 
-addition, to the extent the Waiver is so judged Affirmer hereby 
-grants to each affected person a royalty-free, non transferable, non 
-sublicensable, non exclusive, irrevocable and unconditional license 
-to exercise Affirmer's Copyright and Related Rights in the Work (i) 
-in all territories worldwide, (ii) for the maximum duration provided 
-by applicable law or treaty (including future time extensions), (iii) 
-in any current or future medium and for any number of copies, and 
-(iv) for any purpose whatsoever, including without limitation 
-commercial, advertising or promotional purposes (the "License"). The 
-License shall be deemed effective as of the date this Runxi Yu's 
-Public Domain Dedication was applied by Affirmer to the Work. Should 
-any part of the License for any reason be judged legally invalid or 
-ineffective under applicable law, such partial invalidity or 
-ineffectiveness shall not invalidate the remainder of the License, 
-and in such case Affirmer hereby affirms that they will not (i) 
-exercise any of their remaining Copyright and Related Rights in the 
-Work or (ii) assert any associated claims and causes of action with 
-respect to the Work, in either case contrary to Affirmer's express 
-Statement of Purpose.
-
-4. Waiver of Patent Rights. Notwithstanding the provisions of section 
-2, Affirmer acknowledges that the design codes, utility, technical 
-figures, charts, methods, processes, and all information related to 
-the patent/invention arising out of the Work, the sources, source 
-codes, objects, object codes and all system documentation relating 
-thereto shall not be confidential and shall be non-proprietary for 
-the public worldwide. To the greatest extent permitted by, but not in 
-contravention of, applicable law, Affirmer hereby overtly, fully, 
-permanently, irrevocably and unconditionally waives, abandons, and 
-surrenders all of Affirmer's patent rights and associated claims and 
-causes of action, whether now known or unknown (including existing as 
-well as future claims and causes of action) throughout the world, 
-whether arising under federal law, state law, common law, foreign 
-law, or otherwise, for any patent/invention included by Affirmer in 
-the Work that are licensable by the Affirmer, both currently owned or 
-controlled and acquired or controlled in the future (the "Waiver of 
-Patent Rights"). The Waiver of Patent Rights shall not be subject to 
-revocation, rescission, cancellation, termination, or any other legal 
-or equitable action to disrupt the quiet enjoyment of the Work by the 
-public as contemplated by Affirmer's express Statement of Purpose.
-
-5. Patent Grant Fallback. Should any part of the Waiver of Patent 
-Rights for any reason be judged legally invalid or ineffective under 
-applicable law, then the Waiver of Patent Rights shall be preserved 
-to the maximum extent permitted taking into account Affirmer's 
-express Statement of Purpose. In addition, to the extent the Waiver 
-of Patent Rights is so judged Affirmer hereby grants to each affected 
-person a royalty-free, non transferable, non sublicensable, non 
-exclusive, irrevocable and unconditional license to Affirmer's patent 
-rights, where such license applies only to those patents/inventions 
-included by Affirmer in the Work that are licensable by Affirmer, 
-both currently owned or controlled and acquired or controlled in the 
-future, that are necessarily infringed by making, having made, using, 
-selling, offering for sale, importing or transferring the Work, or 
-otherwise practicing any method or procedure in any patent/invention 
-included by Affirmer in the Work, in whole or in part, alone or in 
-combination with or included in any other Work (i) in all territories 
-worldwide, (ii) for the maximum duration provided by applicable law 
-or treaty including future time extensions, (iii) in any current or 
-future medium and for any number of copies, and (iv) for any purpose 
-whatsoever, including without limitation commercial, advertising or 
-promotional purposes (the "Patent License"). The Patent License shall 
-be deemed effective as of the date this Runxi Yu's Public Domain 
-Dedication was applied by Affirmer to the Work. Should any part of 
-the Patent License for any reason be judged legally invalid or 
-ineffective under applicable law, such partial invalidity or 
-ineffectiveness shall not invalidate the remainder of the Patent 
-License, and in such case Affirmer hereby affirms that they will not 
-(i) exercise any of their patent rights in the Work or (ii) assert 
-any associated claims and causes of action with respect to the Work, 
-in either case contrary to Affirmer's express Statement of Purpose.

-6. Versions. New versions of the Runxi Yu's Public Domain Dedication
-may be released via https://runxiyu.org/note/pubdom.html in order
-to address issues or concerns that come up. Such new versions shall
-remain similar in spirit to provide, as closely as possible, a total
-waiver of all rights. Any person or organization receiving a Work
-covered by this version of the Runxi Yu's Public Domain Dedication

+terms, with knowledge of his or her Copyright and Related Rights in the
+Work and the meaning and intended legal effect of CC0 on those rights.

+partial invalidity or ineffectiveness shall not invalidate the remainder
+of the License, and in such case Affirmer hereby affirms that he or she
+will not (i) exercise any of his or her remaining Copyright and Related
+Rights in the Work or (ii) assert any associated claims and causes of
+action with respect to the Work, in either case contrary to Affirmer's
