About the Python Documentation

The Python documentation was originally written by Guido van Rossum, but has increasingly become a community effort over the past several years. This growing collection of documents is available in several formats, including typeset versions in PDF and PostScript for printing, from the Python Web site.

A list of contributors is available.
