+  Documenting Python
+######################
+
+
+The Python language has a substantial body of documentation, much of it
+contributed by various authors. The markup used for the Python documentation is
+`reStructuredText`_, developed by the `docutils`_ project, amended by custom
+directives and using a toolset named *Sphinx* to postprocess the HTML output.
+
+This document describes the style guide for our documentation, the custom
+reStructuredText markup introduced to support Python documentation and how it
+should be used, as well as the Sphinx build system.
+
+.. _reStructuredText: http://docutils.sf.net/rst.html

+
+If you're interested in contributing to Python's documentation, there's no need
+to write reStructuredText if you're not so inclined; plain text contributions
+are more than welcome as well.
