Agreed on both points!
+1. The PSF will have to agree on the contribution docs first, though. Since there's no discussion on the PSF docs discussion list, I suppose everybody is happy with them :-) BTW, I was referring to the other codecs in the python-codecs project on SF. Most of those are encumbered by the GPL and thus unusable in non-GPL projects. Tamito has switched to a BSD-license after some private discussions about this, which is goodness :-) -- Marc-Andre Lemburg CEO eGenix.com Software GmbH ______________________________________________________________________ Company & Consulting: http://www.egenix.com/ Python Software: http://www.egenix.com/files/python/
