! 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 by 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 developement team moved to BeOpen.com to form tbe
! BeOpen PythonLabs group.  Python 2.0 is a derivative work of Python
! 1.6, developed by PythonLabs and many outside volunteers, under
! Guido's direction.
