Part of the reason I posted it here was for feedback. So if you have any concrete criticisms, I would be interested in hearing them. My goal is to have a document to point upstreams to when I email them about their license. > Isn't "under the > same terms as Python" under all current and future PSF Python licences at > the time of writing, similar to licensing under GPL version 2 or later? The problem is, as I said, the terms of the Python license are very specific to Python. Not in the way that, say, the LPPL is specific to LaTeX, but that the terms of the license specifically identify the PSF, and Python. It's like applying a BSD license and leaving "The Regents of the University of California" in there when you're not the Regents. Or is that okay? It doesn't seem to me like it should be. -- Joe Wreschnig <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
