Python Software Foundation license
Here's a possible Category A (as part discussed in LEGAL-13):
http://www.opensource.org/licenses/PythonSoftFoundation.php
Any reason not to add it to Category A? The only part that jumps out
as at all odd is the Python specific requirement - you have to
summarize any changes you make if it is Python or a part of Python.
Given that AL 2.0 states:
"(b) You must cause any modified files to carry prominent notices
stating that You changed the files; and"
That doesn't seem like a problem for us.
Any thoughts to the contrary?

I looked at it a little while ago (checking if some other policy on
no-source for category B wouldn't bite our collective arse later on) and it
seemed to me like a good category A as well.
