Please remove this.  The PSF does not accept submissions under the PSF
license into the Python core.  see: http://wiki.python.org/moin/PythonSoftwareFoundationLicenseFaq
for why developers for whom this is an important consideration should use
the Academic Free License or the Apachee 2.0 license instead.
