In Jython 2.2, the PSF license is used as the main license.
Charles Groves would like to be able to remove the Jython 2.0/2.1 license from the LICENSE.txt file in Jython.
From 2.2 forward, Jython is using the PSF license. To use it, all new contributors need to send in the [http://www.python.org/psf/contrib/contrib-form/ PSF contribution form]. The form allows the PSF to relicense the code the contributor has written under its own license, and if the need arises, to change the license in the future; the contributor still retains the copyright for the work. See the contribution form page for more detail.
Line 4: Line 3:
To make this legally possible, we need to get signed contributor agreements from everyone who contributed to
the 2.0 and 2.1 releases.

If you participated in 2.0 and 2.1, you should
print out the Contribution Agreement for Jython, sign it, and mail/fax the signed
form to the PSF:

 * http://www.python.org/psf/contrib/contrib-form-jython/

If you're a new contributor whose first work is for Jython 2.2 or later,
you should sign the standard PSF contribution form:

Committer list from the CVS logs; I haven't checked whether the PSF has contributor agreements from
these people.
