Re: [Speed] merging PyPy and Python benchmark suite

OK, good to know. I realized I can't copy code wholesale from PyPy's benchmark suite as I don't know the code's history and thus if the contributor signed Python's contributor agreement.
Why is that? The benchmark suite isn't included in CPython. As a matter of fact, the current benchmark suite contains code that certainly has not been contributed under the PSF CA (e.g. mako).

Antoine's right on this one - just use and redistribute the upstream components under their existing licenses. CPython itself is different because the PSF has chosen to reserve relicensing privileges for that, which requires the extra permissions granted in the contributor agreement.
