Thank you very much for answering,

Indeed as said in intro I do not consider myself having any right to a
voice in this community that exists without me, I only made an
intervention by sheer attachment to the JoPP.

Having proposed a text for the next edition I must say the idea of it
being in CC0 comes as a bad surprise, I will not refrain myself from a
quick comment:

> We had already resolved it, reaching what it seemed to be rough
> consensus on vetoing restrictive licenses like NC/ND. 
I have always wondered about this term "restrictive license" as there is
no neutrality in our world, the issue is: to whom is it restrictive for,
it seems it only restricts capitalist appropriation, as it certainly
does not restrict commercial or community use, quite the contrary, it
favors networks and relation between them, as those do not have any
problems in citing their sources, or redistributing their work.

To me CC0 is restrictive because I am not part of this 1% and do not
plan to be, ever. I have very little mean to protect myself from them,
JOPP being CC0 would make one less canal of communication open for me.
I would have difficulties to publish in a place where third parties
could change my word without removing my name.
