The problem is test cases can’t be made up. There really needs to be a conflict between the parties. Though I expect that if A puts something into the public domain using our procedure, the B might be able to get a declaration that it can rely upon the dedication. Has anyone thought about this procedurally?

A test case? Can one be constructed? Like maybe: Person A publishes something and tries to put it in the public domain. Person B takes it and re-publishes it exactly. Person A then sues Person B for copyright infringement. Would the ruling on such a case help by setting some kind of precedent?
