OK. I'm not sure why you Cc:ed it to me though... I don't even speak
Python :-)

You should rather Cc: it to Anatoly, who will (hopefully) be your
mentor...

What would "included cleanly" mean? And why is it necessary?

I already stated it on IRC, but for the record: I'm not sure this is
even possible. The rest of the Hurd can't be upgraded to v3, because of
the v2-only Linux code (mostly in pfinet). It all depends on whether the
Python bindings can be considered an independant work, or classify as
derived...

Was the original license "v2 or later"? Otherwise it's not up to you to
make that change :-)

Which brings up another matter: who owns the copyright on this? Did
Anatoly assign it to FSF? Otherwise it won't qualify for upstream
inclusion...
