I don't really understand what the point of this is. The complaints largely seem to be "DC weren't respecting me, so now anyone can do what they want with this". One of the things he complains about is how they wanted to do something, thinking they owned the rights, he said no and then they couldn't do it. But... now they can, because it's now in the public domain.
Actually, all this is ignoring the fact that AFAIK, you can't just revoke copyright and put something into the public domain, you have to explicitly grant a non-exclusive licence to everyone instead. That's why all the CC style licences exist.
