The extracted code itself would stay under the PSF license since you don't have the rights to change the license on that. However, as the PSL itself is a very permissive license, you can bundle it with code under whatever other license you or users of your package choose to use (even proprietary ones). That said, while I know a fair bit about software licensing I'm not a lawyer, and even if I was one, I still wouldn't be *your* lawyer, so take what I have to say with a fairly large grain of salt! :) Cheers, Nick. -- Nick Coghlan | ncogh...@gmail.com | Brisbane, Australia --------------------------------------------------------------- _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
