"They"?  nah.  "Google LLC" did not request anything. People who happen to be working for Google on a Google owned project asked a question seeking clarification / codification of some details.  There is nothing more to read into that.  Adam was merely introducing himself by stating some background info as he hasn't participated on the list much in the past. -gps | destroyer of conspiracies PS The number of core devs / committers who are Googlers has been high for well over a decade (myself included).  As is true for many other large open source friendly companies as well.  I believe Microsoft has the most /active/ committers employed at the moment.

I think we should be concerned that fully 1/3 of True Blade's staff are core developers. Why are they so interested in Python? What nefarious end could possibly motivate them to devote so many company resources to its development?
