That makes sense. I also agree with Neal's comments, merging back into python in reasonable sized chunks is good. Don't worry about commit access for now, I'll do the initial pybsddb back into python trunk merges until we get that setup. I've merged the python trunk changes that others have made back into the pybsddb tree. PS: I have tried to sign the Python Contributor Agreement, but I am not > sure about current pybsddb license terms. Help welcomed. The current bsddb license first and foremost is the Python license. If I read the comments in the _bsddb file correctly I believe you could also call it a MIT style license. Keep things simple, just write "Python License" on your contributor form and submit it. -gps
