I'm still yet to meet a lawyer who trusts "public domain" statements... The CLA will ensure we have enough rights to republish the PEP on p.o or future sites, and it doesn't prevent authors from also releasing the text elsewhere under other terms.

I am very much not a lawyer, though :) -- Zach _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/steve.dower%40python.org
