Georg, if he doesn't sign a contrib form, we have no legal right to distribute his work, or to license Python's users to (re)distribute it either. That's just the way the world works. Or if the fellow just doesn't want to bother picking the "initial license" the contrib form requires, tell him to pick the Academic Free License, Version 2.1. Well, you should actually ask him to ask his lawyer to decide that with him, but since I'm not on hallucinogens at the moment, making the choice for him is the only thing that will work in the real world -- it just has to look like it was his choice ;-) _______________________________________________ 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
