Is there any reason we can't just state in the tzdata as well as the tzcode
that this data is in the public domain? Whether this is equivalent with a
license of copyright or not is only a concern if there is a scenario we want
to avoid (person X claims copyright of the tz data unrightfully). I don't
see that happen. But I am not an IP expert.
