Thanks for your help Michael, Bill -----Original Message----- From: Michael Foord [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, January 10, 2012 5:19 PM To: Bill LeClair Cc: [email protected]; pydotorg-www Subject: Re: Questions about the code located on your Wiki
Hello Bill, The wiki is freely editable by anyone, and as such any piece of code may have originally been entered by anyone - or even have multiple authors. I've looked around, but as far as I know we don't have any automatic licensing for code posted to the wiki. That means (unfortunately) that the code posted to the wiki is probably copyright whomever put it there. Small bits of code would probably not be copyrightable at all, but for larger sections of code the licensing position is unclear. I'm afraid I can't help you with your specific question, but I'm sending this to the web team so we can consider an automatic license requirement for future code posted to the wiki.
