No the worry about his heirs is something that the users of his code have to worry about. i.e. a teacher who wants to use it but needs to get permission from the school. The school may have a blanket 'no copyright, no use' policy, just to protect them from the possible claims of heirs. Laura -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
