Well, a naive question: what package(s) could potentially use this
license?
Moreover, this license is not listed in:
https://www.gnu.org/licenses/license-list.html
and the link <https://spdx.org/licenses/CC-PDDC> points to:
https://creativecommons.org/licenses/publicdomain/ [no longer live]
Cheers,
simon

While adding and upgrading packages, I ran across the rust package `pwd` (https://crates.io/crates/pwd/1.4.0) which uses this license. There is a slim chance the author might be willing to update the package to a dual license, but it seemed like adding this would still be useful for completeness sake (and in the case that they aren't able to be reached easily).

Thanks for working on the Rust packages and looking ahead towards needing this license. I'm going to put this patch on the backburner for now, until we actually have some patches that need this license. When the time comes, we can reopen this ticket.
