HISTORY OF THE SOFTWARE
|
|
=======================
|
|
|
|
Python was created in the early 1990s by Guido van Rossum at Stichting
|
|
Mathematisch Centrum (CWI) in the Netherlands as a successor of a
|
|
language called ABC. Guido is Python's principal author, although it
|
|
includes many contributions from others. The last version released
|
|
from CWI was Python 1.2. In 1995, Guido continued his work on Python
|
|
at the Corporation for National Research Initiatives (CNRI) in Reston,
|
|
Virginia where he released several versions of the software. Python
|
|
1.6 was the last of the versions released by CNRI. In 2000, Guido and
|
|
the Python core development team moved to BeOpen.com to form the
|
|
BeOpen PythonLabs team (www.pythonlabs.com). Python 2.0 is the first
|
|
release from PythonLabs. Thanks to the many outside volunteers who
|
|
have worked under Guido's direction to make this release possible.
