Ahhh... It's nice to smell the future! A fresh, new-car smelling, mailing=20
list.

By the way, about the choice of the GPL. All the Jabber clients I use are=20
licensed with the GPL. I can't imagine using a proprietary client. That sai=
d,=20
I'd think the LGPL is an apropriate license. I have an interest on client=20
design. Particularly easy to use clients. Not long ago I tried a proprietar=
y=20
client. That client wasn't even a true Jabber IM client, from the user=20
perspective, in that it didn't allow to send mensagens between arbritary=20
servers. I have no interest in using it. But that client has some very=20
interesting design ideias. Had it been hindered because it had to reinvent=
=20
the wheel we all would loose. It's good to see new designs, that foster new=
=20
good ideias.

In any case, it's probably of little consequences, since I don't hear much=
=20
about proprietary Python programs. But anyway, are you sure you can take=20
existing LGPL code an re-license it under the GPL?

Just my two euro cents
