Yep, you're right, they're political restrictions, and "geographic restrictions" was a euphemism. I'm a huge believer in open source, but personally, these political restrictions don't bother me at all. However, you and Stefan had already both chimed in saying they did bother you, so I'm very happy to pick another hosting option with no argument, which is what I think I said above. I generally loathe political debate, and I think cython-dev is a wildly inappropriate place for it, so I was happy to stick with trying to avoid it altogether -- hence the wording that tried to sidestep the political issues. I'm just trying to figure out what (if anything) we're giving up by dropping code.google.com from the list. -cc _______________________________________________ Cython-dev mailing list Cython-dev@codespeak.net http://codespeak.net/mailman/listinfo/cython-dev
