Thanks for the comments to far. I haven=92t seen any objections against Pyt=
hon-2.0.1, just thought about the status of CNRI-Python-GPL-Compatible as i=
t isn=92t a standalone license (just like CNRI-Python which has been approv=
ed).

Shall I open a thread on license-review@ to come closer to a decision?

Best,
Max
