Hello everyone,

I’m Balázs Hamorszky, the author of a new license called the P-EADCA Universal Waiver License (PUWL v1.0)

PUWL is a permissive / waiver-style license that aims to:
  • Waive all rights that can legally be waived, in all jurisdictions,
  • Disclaim all liability,
  • Provide a universal fallback where full waiver is not recognized,
  • Combine several existing public-domain-style approaches into a single text

The full text and README (with philosophy and usage instructions) are here:
  → https://github.com/balihb/PUWL

My intent is to first ask for informal feedback, before submitting it to the formal license-review process.
I’d appreciate any comments or concerns you may have.

Thank you for your time.

Best regards,
Balázs Hamorszky
