Hello python-django-registration has been removed from testing, and since it's an useful package I'd like to bring it back into it. There is a new upstream release, and there was already some work done in git to package it, but it was failing because upstream has added a new dependency on https://pypi.org/project/confusable_homoglyphs/ The problem with the latter is that it includes two files from the unicode consortium: http://www.unicode.org/Public/UNIDATA/Scripts.txt http://www.unicode.org/Public/security/latest/confusables.txt which, if my understanding of https://www.unicode.org/copyright.html is correct aren't DFSG, but could be redistributed. I have two questions on how to proceed. 1) I've pushed to git a patch to make confusable_homoglyphs optional: it seems to be working, but it's still missing proper warning of the user that that specific protection is disabled. I would add both a runtime warning and a .NEWS. Do you think it is ok to upload the package like this? 2) Even if the answer to 1 is yes, I can also try to package confusable_homoglyphs: upstream can download the files from the unicode consortium if they aren't available: do you think it's better to use that ability and package the file in contrib, or just put everything in non-free? Personally, the latter sounds quite easier, and I would be strongly tempted by it. -- Elena ``of Valhalla'' 🧛
