  • FSF response to the Python 2.1 license

    ...time in negotiation with CNRI is the applicable law provision in paragraph 7. The GPL doesn't use an applicable law provision. We are concerned about a number of problems that can arise. You see the simplest of them already in your license stack: one license applying the law of California and another the law of Virginia. That could happen many times over with free software projects, with each module and some patches within the modules treated under different rules of law, which woul...

  • Python 2.4.1 - Release Notes

    ...time changes: The date class is now properly subclassable.

This wasn't enough of a difference to justify distinct classes, and life is simpler now. today() and now() now round system timestamps to the closest micro...

  • Web SIG

    ...time limit of six months for coming up with a plan. Some concrete suggestions on how to draw up a work list follow. The task can be divided into two parts, client and server. On the client side, a great deal of mechanism is available, but it's been developed in a patchwork fashion over the last 10 years. I'd suggest that we build a checklist based on looking at some client-side tool like curl, then add the ability to do everything in that checklist to Python's "httplib" module. Addit...
