make m.p.o/mailman/ redirect to listinfo?
by Jeremy Baron Jan. 26, 2012

Jan. 26, 2012

Hi, IMHO, http://mail.python.org/mailman/ should do something useful rather than throw a 403. I suggest 30[12] -> listinfo. Thanks, Jeremy

Fw: [Archiver-policy] Impact of SOPA?
by Barry Warsaw Jan. 17, 2012

Jan. 17, 2012

I really almost hesitate to send this, not because I'm not entirely sympathetic to the cause, but because political discussions are always problematic and perhaps more so because of the PSF's non-profit status. Still, SOPA and the like are evil pieces of legislation that will have seriously dire consequences to Python and python.org. Notwithstanding the recent backtracking on these bills, I wonder if we should blackout as well for solidarity (and self-interest). I'm deliberately sending it here first, although the board would likely have to decide too. The question is, if we wanted to participate, would it be technically feasible given our volunteer resources? -Barry Begin forwarded message: Date: Sun, 15 Jan 2012 17:21:45 -0800 From: Jeff Marshall <marshman(a)gmail.com> To: Hank Leininger <hlein(a)marc.info> Cc: "archiver-policy(a)python.org" <archiver-policy(a)python.org> Subject: Re: [Archiver-policy] Impact of SOPA? Hi Hank, great to hear from you. We've been discussing it this weekend and we are leaning strongly towards doing a full blackout for the day on the 18th. We plan on deciding tonight. We haven't gotten any legal opinions on the proposed legislation, but our IANAL interpretation is pretty dire like yours. It would be great if several of us participated in the blackout together resulting in more awareness across the spectrum.

Re: [pydotorg-www] Questions about the code located on your Wiki
by Michael Foord Jan. 12, 2012

Jan. 12, 2012

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.
