Hi - I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask this, but I don't know of a more appropriate place.
Sometime around 2007 I first extracted a function that was in Python's Cmd class and used that. Since then, I have modified and generalized it a bit more and turned it into a Python egg called columnize<http://pypi.python.org/pypi/columnize>. I also ported it to Ruby and made Ruby package or gem. A couple of people/companies have asked about redistributing this and have asked for a more MIT-like and less GPL-like license. I guess they will bundle this with their proprietary code. For the Python package, I used PSL Version 2, but is this legitimate? code.google.com doesn't seem to recognize in their list of licenses so that suggests what I did might not be the right thing. (So instead, code.google.com I selected the MIT License.) Can a MIT License be used for code extracted from Python's standard library? Other comments or suggestions? Thanks.
