These people have contributed in some way to the Python documentation. This list is probably not complete -- if you feel that you or anyone else should be on this list, please let us know (send email to python-docs@python.org), and we will be glad to correct the problem.

It is only with the input and contributions of the Python community that Python has such wonderful documentation -- Thank You!
