The more realistically ;-) I try to picture the suggested alternatives, the more sensible this one sounds. Some people at the sprint (like me, wrt the Iceland sprint) could volunteer to be responsible for checking checkins for appropriateness, and in any case everyone subscribed to python-checkins would see what's going on. That's a major goodness all by itself, for "more eyeballs" reasons. It should be possible to quickly stop anyone abusing the privilege. However ... speaking as a PSF Director, I wouldn't be comfortable with this unless sprinters signed a PSF contribution form beforehand. Else we get code in the PSF repository with clear-as-mud copyright and licensing issues. Having contribution forms in place would also ease fears that sprint output might be "subverted" to non-open status. _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
