Nonsense. They could be more than willing to contribute their patches, but aren't willing to accept the GPL's limitation to being used only in open source packages. LGPL? No, there is probably no reason to have a serious problem with that if you're going to submit patches, but GPL, yes. Carl Banks -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
