Use "public domain-equivalent" instead of "public"
Public licenses are not actually the same thing as public domain-equivalent licenses. A public license is a license that allows for more general public usage, MIT, GPL and MPL are examples of public licenses. Public domain-equivalent licenses, on the other hand are licenses that provide rights equivalent to the US' public domain. So if they allow for fully free distribution, commercial usage, modification, and relicensing without needing to attribution the original authors of the work. IE, they allow for the same things that they would allow for as if they were in the public domain.
