Is Boost Software License [1] compatible with Python license? Can I steal some code from Boost library [2]?
[1] http://www.boost.org/LICENSE10.txt [2] http://www.boost.org/
Depends on what you want to do with it after stealing it.
Assuming you want to add it to CPython, two things to consider:
Isn't Boost C++ code?
Usually, people who contribute code to CPython must sign a contributors agreement. As far as I understand it, that would be those who wrote it, not those who "stole" it from them.
