I have nothing against the GPL (well, yes I do, I think it makes the free and commercial software sides enemies, but that's a completely different topic), but I do think it would be nice if all free Python software was released under the same license as Python itself. Python is an elegant language, and having all kinds of different Python modules under all sorts of different licenses is, well...inelegant.
Thanks for the module though! I will be looking at it once I get Tiger installed, it could be very useful. Does it allow the _creation_ of custom metadata tags on files? Or are we restricted to the ones defined by Apple? Thanks, Ken > >>> I released the code under the GPL > >>> > >>> > >>> > >> Why GPL? > >> > >> > > > > Why not? > > That's as good an answer as any. I was just wondering. One reason to > pick a MIT/BSD license (or even the PSF license) is that it is very > unlikely that GPL-ed code will ever be included with Python itself. _______________________________________________ Pythonmac-SIG maillist - Pythonmac-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pythonmac-sig
