I can say what's wrong with Python CLA which basically relicenses code under Apache 2.0 license to "whatever license PSF wants", which is pretty illegal (i.e. doesn't work) as I see it. But that's really offtopic. I've posted a question to the python-legal-sig related to documentation and Wikipedia. I.e. Wikipedia doesn't require you to sign CLA, so let's allow them to sort it out first.</div>
<div style><br></div><div style>You have my confirmation as an author that the code is in public domain. You can use MIT license if there is a problem with public domain works not made by NASA in US. You can ask me about patents and I say that I don't own and don't aware of any patents related to this code. What's wrong with community process here? I am here. I am not dead yet. If PSF is afraid of something - I can answer publicly. Just tell me what's wrong with that. What is this deal with signing these papers? Nobody understands the outcomings, nobody can say in public how it works, but everybody follows the procedure. Is this the modern behavior of Python hackers praised by Paul Graham. To me it looks like a lemming behavior liked by corporations and controlling organizations. May I opt-out from be a lemming in Python community as I see it and still have an ability to contribute?<br>
