Both files come from BitTorrent sources, but he couldn't remember which version was used. So I suggested him to update bencode.py to the latest revision included in BitTorrent-5.2.2 which is released under the PSF License 2.3: http://www.mail-archive.com/deluge-commit@googlegroups.com/msg00713.html File metafile.py is a modified version of makemetafile.py from BitTorrent, but unfortunately it is released under BTOSL 1.1 also in the latest release.
