 will still be able to link the Python modules against already
 installed libraries, or disable them completely.

- Additionally, some Open Source third-party modules will also be
- distributed together with the source distribution.

! TBD -- does this mean some will be distributed but not enabled by
! default? [ed]

! Here is the list of libraries which are proposed to be dealt with
! in this manner, and where they can be downloaded:

! functionality in out-of-the-box Python.

 Software covered by the GNU Public License

! While many Python modules rely on software distributed under the
! GNU General Public License and the GNU Lesser General Public
! License, no such sources are proposed here to be added to the
! Python interpreter. Currently, the Python interpreter is
! distributed under a closed-source-friendly license, which means
! that it is possible to include it in a closed source product.
! Making redistributers worry about which parts they need to remove
! to make closed-source redistribution legal might cost more then
! the benefits.
