CNRI and the FSF are still talking about it.  Sorry, but any definitive
information has to come from them (the CNRI 1.6 license is the focus of the
dispute, and only CNRI can modify that; while only the FSF can pronounce on
what they think is and isn't compatible; nobody at PythonLabs-- including
Guido! --has any say in this matter).
