Python in base?

Python is not GPL, it's a BSD like license.

Personally I like Python very much and would love to see it as a 
standard installed package, just like cvsup, however I think the chance 
that Python (or PostgreSQL my favo bsd like licensed db) would be 
standard installed is very slim, because you force another package down 
the throat of the poor administrators.

Most bsd administrators I know have a bit of "I can &%$^$@% install my 
own $%#!$%* package if I need it" personality, perhaps not without reason.
