If I remember correctly, if he is living in the U.S.A. and registers a
specific work with the U.S. copyright office as being released by him
into the public domain, then the work will indeed be in the public
domain within the U.S.A. We need to bother with more than the U.S.A.,
however, and one can only register specific works which means it is not
possible to register them before they are even created.
