The registry is a collection of lists. Such a thing probably counts as a work under copyright, and we should pick a license. I'm not well versed in this area, but there's some talk that source code licenses are not well suited to non-code works. The hugely popular Awesome lists "strongly recommend the CC0 license, but any Creative Commons license will work" (source: <https://github.com/sindresorhus/awesome/blob/main/pull_request_template.md>). CC0 is a public domain equivalent license -- essentially a wordy waiver of rights granted under copyright intended to also cover countries whose legislation doesn't let authors voluntarily place works into the public domain. Should we go with CC0?
