Re: [Python-mode] FSF assignment policy

The last asserted copyright in the file is from 1994 by Tim Peters. I know that Tim has since assigned his copyright to the FSF. I'm willing to change that line to "Copyright 2009 Free Software Foundation" and slap a GPL license on the file. I think we're in legal rights to do this. Please note that we resisted the GPL for a long time because python- mode.el was distributed with Python. All code in the Python distribution should have the PSF license and specifically cannot have the GPL. Now that python-mode.el has been distributed separately for a long time, this restriction no longer applies.
