Ideally, a public domain waiver guarantees that your work can't be legally cut off from the culture. The BSD license is an attempt to achieve something like that without abandoning copyright. One of my motivations for being interested in the public domain is that creative work I did on console games is now essentially inaccessible to the culture. The majority of our culture is in this category, because international copyright law makes sure that no work enters the public domain without explicit effort. -- Anthony Carrico
