I'm the author of statistics.py, and for historical reasons it was originally included in the standard library under the Apache licence.
I now wish to change that and have it licenced under Python's standard licence. Is there anything I need to do other than just remove the Apache licence boilerplate from the file? I am not a lawyer nor an expert on this but you should read the following pages. It's explained there that the standard licenses for code contributed to Python itself should be either the Apache 2.0 License or the Academic Free License v2.1. https://www.python.org/psf/contrib/ https://wiki.python.org/moin/PythonSoftwareFoundationLicenseFaq
I believe you selected one of these when you signed the CA.
