| Abstract: |
The article focuses on the Python Software Foundation's (PSF) decision to reject a $1.5 million grant from the US National Science Foundation (NSF) due to conditions that conflicted with the PSF's commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI). The NSF's requirement that the PSF not operate any DEI programs during the grant period posed a significant financial risk, as it included a clawback clause for funds already spent. The PSF aimed to use the grant to enhance Python's software supply chain security and develop tools for the open source community. The board's unanimous vote to withdraw the application underscores its dedication to fostering a diverse community of Python developers. [Extracted from the article] |
