OK, let's see if we can do CC0. Todd, do you want to read through the link Steven gave and find out how we should apply this, either to just the itertools examples, or possibly to all examples in the docs?

The public domain is *exceedingly* problematic. Many juristictions do
not have any legal process for putting things into the public domain
before the standard copyright expiry, or even prohibit the attempt to
surrender such rights.
That's why the Creative Commons folks have their CC0 licence, which
seems to be the most appropriate for this case.
