See doc/licenses/GPL.txt. It is believed the unchanged inclusion of test.py to run the unit test suite falls under the "aggregation" clause of the GPL and thus does not affect the license of the rest of the package. sprout.tagfilter contains regular expressions from the HTMLParser module in the Python standard library. sprout.saxext.generator is an improved version of the generator in the Python standard library.
