Python is owned, as in copyright and trademark, by the Python Software 
Foundation, a US non-profit corporation, with a Board elected by the 
voting members.  Python is defined by the Reference and Library manuals. 
It was originally designed by Guido, who subsequently gave it to the 
PSF. At least 95% of current design work is done by other people under 
the framework Guido established, with his occasional input to make sure 
Python 'stays on track'.
