Thanks. I addressed the claim here where it was made; but you're right
that a different forum is better for an ongoing discussion about this
topic.

Okay, that's been raised before.

If anyone can cite other specific dependencies that would necessitate a
CLA for Python, please contact me off-list, and/or in the Python legal-sig
<URL:https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-legal-sig>.

And many do not. It would be good to shift the PSF into the larger set
of organisations that do not require a CLA for accepting contributions.

Thanks, all. Sorry to bring the topic up again here.
