    10 History of the software
       
    11 =======================
       
    12 
       
    13 Python was created in the early 1990s by Guido van Rossum at Stichting
       
    14 Mathematisch Centrum (CWI, see http://www.cwi.nl/) in the Netherlands as a
       
    15 successor of a language called ABC.  Guido remains Python's principal author,
       
    16 although it includes many contributions from others.
       
    17 
       
    18 In 1995, Guido continued his work on Python at the Corporation for National
       
    19 Research Initiatives (CNRI, see http://www.cnri.reston.va.us/) in Reston,
       
    20 Virginia where he released several versions of the software.
       
    21 
       
    22 In May 2000, Guido and the Python core development team moved to BeOpen.com to
       
    23 form the BeOpen PythonLabs team.  In October of the same year, the PythonLabs
       
    24 team moved to Digital Creations (now Zope Corporation; see
       
    25 http://www.zope.com/).  In 2001, the Python Software Foundation (PSF, see
       
    26 http://www.python.org/psf/) was formed, a non-profit organization created
       
    27 specifically to own Python-related Intellectual Property.  Zope Corporation is a
       
    28 sponsoring member of the PSF.
       
    29 
       
    30 All Python releases are Open Source (see http://www.opensource.org/ for the Open
       
    31 Source Definition). Historically, most, but not all, Python releases have also
       
    32 been GPL-compatible; the table below summarizes the various releases.

    94 .. note::
       
    95 
       
    96    GPL-compatible doesn't mean that we're distributing Python under the GPL.  All
       
    97    Python licenses, unlike the GPL, let you distribute a modified version without
       
    98    making your changes open source. The GPL-compatible licenses make it possible to
       
    99    combine Python with other software that is released under the GPL; the others
       
   100    don't.
       
   101 
       
   102 Thanks to the many outside volunteers who have worked under Guido's direction to
       
   103 make these releases possible.

   446      Independent implementation of MD5 (RFC 1321).
       
   447 
       
   448      This code implements the MD5 Algorithm defined in RFC 1321, whose

   450    	http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc1321.txt
       
   451      The code is derived from the text of the RFC, including the test suite
       
   452      (section A.5) but excluding the rest of Appendix A.  It does not include

   459 
       
   460      2002-04-13 lpd Removed support for non-ANSI compilers; removed
       
   461    	references to Ghostscript; clarified derivation from RFC 1321;
       
   462    	now handles byte order either statically or dynamically.
       
   463      1999-11-04 lpd Edited comments slightly for automatic TOC extraction.
       
   464      1999-10-18 lpd Fixed typo in header comment (ansi2knr rather than md5);
       
   465    	added conditionalization for C++ compilation from Martin
       
   466    	Purschke <purschke@bnl.gov>.

   612    - Use binascii module to do the actual line-by-line conversion
       
   613      between ascii and binary. This results in a 1000-fold speedup. The C
       
   614      version is still 5 times faster, though.
       
   615    - Arguments more compliant with python standard
