There's an announcement at the top of http://www.python.org/, though, and an
announcement about the new license at http://www.pythonlabs.com/.  Guido
also posted to comp.lang.python.  You probably haven't seen the latter if
you use the mailing list gateway, because many mailing lists at python.org
coincidentally got hosed at the same time due to a full disk.  Else your
news server simply hasn't gotten it yet (I saw it come across on
netnews.msn.com, but then Microsoft customers get everything first <wink>).
