Hi,

I had contacted upstream regarding PublicDomain license for Haskell package MonadCatchIO-mtl [1] as mentioned at:

http://www.mail-archive.com/legal@lists.fedoraproject.org/msg00380.html

The response is as follows:

=== REPLY ===

Hi

If I recall correctly, this package was built from gathering code snippets that were posted by others on public mailing lists. Hence, I consider it to be in the public domain and don't want to claim any form of copyright on it (not even the claiming-and-releasing that, if I understand correctly, the CC-0 license does).

If I understand correctly, if I don't claim to be the copyright holder, I cannot provide you with a useful statement. Of course, I'm not a lawyer and I don't have much experience with licensing issues, so I'm open to more knowledgable advice.

Thanks Daniel

=== END ===

Please let me know as to how we can proceed further?

Appreciate any inputs,

Thanks!
