Then I think you should apply to the PSF for funds for the license (or ask the PSF to buy the license directly and send the software to you). Getting the license for one year should allow you to finish the 2.3 line. (While I appreciate what Guido is saying about finding a sponsor, I don't think we should hold your license pending that -- spending $500 to support several thousand people in the Python community is exactly what the PSF should doing IMO. At this point, I'd suggest that further discussion move to the psf-members list.) One thing you *could* do right now: post a message to c.l.py.a with a Subject: saying "Save OS9!", requesting donations to the PSF. ;-) -- Aahz (aahz at pythoncraft.com) <*> http://www.pythoncraft.com/ A: No. Q: Is top-posting okay?
