Hi Daniel,
1) The python logo is subject to the PSF Trademark Usage Policy[1][2].
At a quick glance, it looks like it is distributable, but I doubt it
complies with the DFSG.
2) If it is about whether a license is DFSG, you probably want either
debian-legal@lists.debian.org or debian-mentors. I suspect that
debian-mentors is faster when it is "trivial" to determine whether
something is DFSG-compliant, but you may be punted to debian-legal or
the FTP masters for sufficiently obscure licenses.
Hope that answers your questions,
~Niels
