Ah, found that section at the very bottom of the PEP now. Thanks. It may be better to move this all the way up, since I'm pretty sure that it'll make people feel better. The attic repo would need to go unter the Python Github account though to make it more official and also make sure the licensing aspect it dealt with properly (the PSF would have to officially distribute the package to be able to use the CLA relicensing). -- Marc-Andre Lemburg eGenix.com Professional Python Services directly from the Experts (#1, Jun 24 2021) >>> Python Projects, Coaching and Support ... https://www.egenix.com/ >>> Python Product Development ... https://consulting.egenix.com/ ________________________________________________________________________ ::: We implement business ideas - efficiently in both time and costs ::: eGenix.com Software, Skills and Services GmbH Pastor-Loeh-Str.48 D-40764 Langenfeld, Germany.
