I'm not in general opposed to commercial software (which is what they
obviously
want their software to be, even if they donate it to non-commercial =
use), but
in a situation like this, where we are considering stuff that ought to =
go into
the Python distribution we certainly don't want anything included that =
is
not in
agreement with the Python licence. I'm pretty sure Guido won't allow it
anyway.

[The TimeHorse]----------------------------------------------------

 	Again, the point I am trying to make is that we should make whatever =
public-license calendar libraries we do incorporate be modular enough so =
that if other libraries come along, they can just be "plugged in".  In =
that sense, stuffing all the calendar code for every calendar into a =
single module will not work as it does not allow for the convenient =
addition of other calendar converters, such as the ones I am talking =
about.

			Be Seeing You,
