That's true, the PSF is not suitable for third party modules. The FAQ even says so: "The PSF license was developed specifically and only for Python and its standard libraries." (http://wiki.python.org/moin/PythonSoftwareFoundationLicenseFaq). It does go on to say how to modify the PSF license, which is mostly 's/PSF/Your Organization/g'. This may be what has been done for formencode.
