I'd like this (despite the additional installation burden - we can ship
|
|
binaries for Windows and Mac) and not only for technical reasons. As I
|
|
understand it, post-1.8x versions of the core bsddb code ship under the
|
|
Sleepycat license, which demands that projects using it must be
|
|
published-source. This is a problem if we want Spambayes to be fully
|
|
PSF-licensed - if someone wants to take the Spambayes source and fund their
|
|
addictions by creating a commercial, closed-source spam-filter product, the
|
|
PSF license allows that but not if the code relies on bsddb. Not that I'm
|
|
in favour of people making money from Spambayes (unless it's me 8-) but the
|
|
PSF license does allow for it - it should be all or nothing. Or do I have
|
|
this all wrong?
|
|
|
|
Slightly OT: This has concerned me since PLabs announced that they were
|
|
integrating bsddb into Python 2.3 - it's going to make it very easy
|
|
(especially on Windows) for someone to write code that uses anydbm, wrap it
|
|
up with Py2exe and ship it under a commercial license, not knowing that
|
|
they're breaking the Sleepycat license. They've never heard of Sleepycat
|
|
Software or even bsddb - as far as they're concerned, this "bsddb.pyd" file
|
|
that Py2exe tells them they need to ship is just another part of Python,
|
|
like _socket.pyd or select.pyd.
