Hi Emilio, I am glad you like it :)

I used it for three of my packages:

http://packages.debian.org/changelogs/pool/main/libb/libbio-primerdesigner-perl/current/copyright
http://packages.debian.org/changelogs/pool/main/libb/libbio-graphics-perl/current/copyright
http://packages.debian.org/changelogs/pool/non-free/libm/libmath-random-perl/current/copyright

I am really looking for something as simple as the WTFPL license, but without
the aggressive wording. The IETF text proposed by Russ or the CC0 license are
probably more correct from a legal point of view, but each time I read such text,
I feel so bored...

Have a nice day,
