Create a libpythonX.Y.so library on IRIX.  Patch on behalf of Stuart Shelton.

I'm worried about this "on behalf of" contribution. Does Stuart Shelton actually approve this contribution? Would he be willing to sign a contributor agreement?

#7717 also contains code "on behalf of" other people.

I think so.  From my experience he's mainly not willing to sign up to each and every bugtracking system, which I fully understand.

Do you guys need signed contracts for each and every (even single line) patch?  Is it better to report the problem and how it can possibly be redone by one of the python devs?  In this case that would be something like "take the linux case, and change LD_LIBRARY_PATH to LD_LIBRARYN32_PATH".

I'm really in favour of getting rid of these 35 patches against Python :)

I think the patch in its current form is then, unfortunately, not acceptable - unless Stuart Shelton actually signs a contributor agreement. I don't know what makes you believe that he actually meant to contribute the code to Python, but I just don't want to take the risk that he comes back later and says that the contribution was unauthorized (or perhaps not even his own work).

For trivial patches, redoing them might be reasonable. It might then be useful to record (e.g. in a comment) how they had been done, and to also indicate how the submitter has tested them.

Rejecting this patch.

I've asked Stuart to sign up and comment on this bug to get his opinion.  Sorry.

I've no objection to signing the relevant paperwork if that's what's needed to get this committed - if someone could point me in the direction of what I needed to do in order to do so?

Is it necessary to file a new bug for the same issue, or can we reopen from here?  With Stuart in the loop it looks to me the raised issues are dealt with?

I'll reopen this for now, no need for duplicate issues.

http://www.python.org/psf/contrib/ has the relevant contributor agreement that should be signed.

Stuart has been asked to sign the paperwork on #7717.

According to the python-dev discussion, Irix is not supported anymore:
