My comments on the issue you linked as well as the previous re-license of nerdcommenter pretty much explains my position on this. The potential contributor with a legal reason for not being able to contribute under WTFPL is a pretty solid nudge in that direction too. Even if that person doesn't turn back up I'm sure there are others is similar positions.
I'd fully support a re-license to CC0
. Actually I'd be fine with MIT
or several other options too but my previous research suggests CC0
is the closest match with the WTFPL
while being palatable to FOSS orgs, individuals on the prudish side (myself included), and also having some legal standing in places where public domain is not a thing.
Given the lack of barriers to re-licensing in this situation I would probably just let this sit around a little while collecting upvotes and any comments, then if nobody objected with unaddressed concerns we'll just go for it.

This is also mentioned in #1280 which shows there is a real demand for it, And I'm not just suggesting this change for the sake of change alone.

Thank you for pinning this issue, I didn't want to be rude and pin this without permission from you.
I think CC0
is a solid choice for this project. I personally license everything under MIT
or (L)GPL-3
(mostly for tools since in my opinion, they benefit the most from the sticky license); But CC0
has a similar spirit to the original license(minus the coolness), and it will raise the least amount of objections(and hopefully none).
