You technically have to have a written agreement with the people who provide the source that they will continue to do so. This is why I suggested that python.org could just host the source and provide that agreement to other distributors of Python. We could ask the GMP folks for those assurances as well, but that point appears moot as there are technical issues with using the library (which is what I was really trying to get at in the first place). I still think we should investigate other arbitrary precision math libraries, or have someone commit to meeting certain performance goals for PyLong. -- Nick _______________________________________________ Python-3000 mailing list Python-3000@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-3000 Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-3000/archive%40mail-archive.com
