I'd spend a lot more time worrying about making something that is of
high quality and wide interest before worrying about the license. It's
not a simple matter to add a module to the standard Python
distribution--it needs a lot of enthusiastic users first, and a clear
ecological niche that isn't fulfilled by other modules. Plus Guido has
to like it.
