tl;dr: nsf requested that python software foundation affirms that they “do not, and will not during the term of this financial assistance award, operate any programs that advance or promote DEI, or discriminatory equity ideology in violation of Federal anti-discrimination laws”.

the psf has withdrawn the proposal instead.

I’m not really sure how far that’ll go, tbh. a couple of dipshits will gripe on the orange site but I can’t see this becoming any real kind of wailing flashpoint - largely because I don’t think that most of those clowns even have any idea that the psf exists and even less what it is they do
