What sort of trust do you mean?
Do you mean trust in the quality of the product? You need to decide that for yourself, just like always.
Do you mean trust that the author won't be a jerk in the future and try to stop you from using it? They can't: they've released it into the public domain. They can decide later to release a new version under a new license or stop distributing it, but they can't stop you from using that version once you've obtained it.
- amichail 19y agoI mean maybe the author(s) copied part of the work from something that is not public domain and then claimed wrongly that the result is public domain. In my case, having to change the word list later because it turns out that part of it was copied from a proprietary source would mess up my puzzle.
