Yes, my intent was that they go under the normal Python 'do what thou
wilt' license.  If I goofed in any way, please let me know!

Guilty as charged.  I've been tweaking them a bit lately, for
performance, but anyone can grab the very latest versions out of the
medusa CVS repository:

CVSROOT=:pserver:medusa at seattle.nightmare.com:/usr/local/cvsroot
(the password is 'medusa')

Or download one of the snapshots.

BTW, those particular files have always had the Python
copyright/license.
