+History and License
+*******************
+
+
+History of the software
+=======================
+
+Python was created in the early 1990s by Guido van Rossum at Stichting
+Mathematisch Centrum (CWI, see http://www.cwi.nl/) in the Netherlands as a
+successor of a language called ABC. Guido remains Python's principal author,
+although it includes many contributions from others.
+
+In 1995, Guido continued his work on Python at the Corporation for National
+Research Initiatives (CNRI, see http://www.cnri.reston.va.us/) in Reston,
+Virginia where he released several versions of the software.
+
+In May 2000, Guido and the Python core development team moved to BeOpen.com to
+form the BeOpen PythonLabs team. In October of the same year, the PythonLabs
+team moved to Digital Creations (now Zope Corporation; see
+http://www.zope.com/). In 2001, the Python Software Foundation (PSF, see
+http://www.python.org/psf/) was formed, a non-profit organization created
+specifically to own Python-related Intellectual Property. Zope Corporation is a
+sponsoring member of the PSF.
+
+All Python releases are Open Source (see http://www.opensource.org/ for the Open
+Source Definition). Historically, most, but not all, Python releases have also
+been GPL-compatible; the table below summarizes the various releases.

+.. note::
+
+ GPL-compatible doesn't mean that we're distributing Python under the GPL. All
+ Python licenses, unlike the GPL, let you distribute a modified version without
+ making your changes open source. The GPL-compatible licenses make it possible to
+ combine Python with other software that is released under the GPL; the others
+ don't.
+
+Thanks to the many outside volunteers who have worked under Guido's direction to
+make these releases possible.
