However the problem still remains of how to pronounce this. ;) "CC urh". "CC slashed-oh." "CC empty set." "CC Close-mid front rounded vowel". Problematic indeed."CC-none", short as "CC-by" and even shorter than "CC-by-sa" :)
All Scandinavians know that a Ø is pronounced like the 'i' in 'Sir'.
"CC-ih" ?
[Not directed towards kjetil in particular] I'm not sure everyone would pick up on that, might be easier if we just refer to it as "CC-none" or "CC-released" or something of the s ort, rather than "CC-Ø". Licensing is hard enough for newbies (even for oldbies!) and there's so much confusion over which CC licenses are accepted, it's easier for us to say "we accept CC-by, CC-by-sa, and CC-none" than it is to use "CC-Ø".
I think CC-none is a not so good idea. CC-none implies CC without anything, which implies that all CC licenses are allowed. I think CC-null, CC-zero or CC-O is less confusing.
Not everyone using keyboards without the Ø character wants to memorise and then type "Alt+0216" to produce it, or wants to have to copypaste every time they want to mention it ;)
AltGr (right alt) + L = Ø if you use US-international.
