Sorry for taking so long to look at this.  I've CC'd spot (and emailed him some
of the back story) to get his take on the situation.

Fabio says (copied from [1]):

"All beneath org.python.pydev.jython/Lib come from jython 2.1. I just extracted
it and bundled it in pydev (the jython guys probably have taken some of them
from python).  I don't think it's really safe to change those files, as it could
break some things... that internal jython distribution is actually only used for
jython scripting inside of pydev, but those scripts would have to be re-checked
if an upgrade is done (I'd rather only do that update once jython 2.2 is stable)."

So is it okay for us to include this separate copy?  Jython's BSD and PyDev is
EPL.  What's python?  If it's okay to include them from Fedora's standpoint
(with the plan to symlink once jython 2.2 goes final) and from a legal POV, I'm
okay with keeping them.

> > - plugins/org.python.pydev_1.3.1/PySrc.  What is the content of this directory?

"The files from org.python.pydev/PySrc/ThirdParty are either from Bycicle repair
man or ctypes (they are distributed in pydev, and executed under a separate shell)."

We don't seem to have bicycle repairman or ctypes in Fedora.  If the bits of
those projects are necessary for non-testing purposes, can we include them for
now and try to package those projects or do we need to package those projects first?

> This is some auxiliary scripts that are used for running tests I believe.

How much can we remove that's not testing-related?

> > - plugins/org.python.pydev.jython_1.3.1/jysrc.	Same questions as above.
> 
> This is pydev's files, and they are jython scripts used to control pydev.

Okay, great.

> > - plugins/org.python.pydev.debug_1.3.1/pysrc.  Same.
> These seem to be pydev's own scripts. 

Okay, great.
