Hello everyone,

This morning, the CC REST API was updated to include support for the Public Domain Mark and to deprecate the issuing of the retired Public Domain Certification and Dedication. We have also added a new element, `deprecated`, in license responses, that denotes whether or not the issued license has been deprecated by Creative Commons. These changes affect all versions of the REST API, excluding 1.0.

This is a bit of a late reply, but -- it's *great* to see the 'deprecated' metadata showing up in the REST API. That's excellent.

And the new Public Domain stuff Mark work been a long time coming. A lot of CC fans really appreciate the work CC is doing on revising that, and so it's a really welcome sign that it's stable enough to land in the API.
