[Python-legal-sig] Copyright page in the documentation

[Antoine Pitrou]

Hello,

Refocussing on one of Anatoly's points (and without cross-posting :-)):

The page "Copyright" in the documentation claims that the Python code
and documentation is (c) the PSF
(see http://docs.python.org/3/copyright.html ).

However, this is not true, and it is not what the LICENSE says: the
LICENSE says the PSF grants the rights to the end user (which is ok,
thanks to the CLAs). The LICENSE doesn't claim the PSF owns the
copyright (which it doesn't, since there's no copyright assignment).

How should we change the page above? Is it ok to change:

  Copyright © 2001-2013 Python Software Foundation. All rights reserved.

to e.g.:

  Copyright © 2001-2013 Core Python Developers and Contributors. All
  rights reserved.

Or would another wording be preferrable?

(note: I'm not trying to discuss the other copyright lines - before
year 2000 - before I don't have any info about that)

(Terry Reedy points there's also the doc footer which says "©
Copyright 1990-2013, Python Software Foundation")

Regards

Antoine.
