 \subsection{Public Domain Software}
 % FIXME: this section needs more improvements to make it clear that public
 % domain dedication is difficult, if not impossible.
 % Karen suggests that talking about USA government software being public
 % domain might make sense here.
 Theoretically, an author can create public domain software by disclaiming all
 copyright interest on the work. In the USA and other countries that have
 signed the Berne convention on copyright, software is copyrighted
