We're always looking for volunteers wanting +to help with the docs, so feel free to send a mail there! + +Many thanks go to: + +* Fred L. Drake, Jr., the creator of the original Python documentation toolset + and writer of much of the content; +* the `docutils <http://docutils.sf.net/>`_ project for creating + reStructuredText and the docutils suite; +* Fredrik Lundh for his `Alternative Python Reference + <http://effbot.org/zone/pyref.htm>`_ project from which Sphinx got many good + ideas. + +See :ref:`reporting-bugs` for information how to report bugs in Python itself. + +.. including the ACKS file here so that it can be maintained separately +.. include:: ACKS.txt + +It is only with the input and contributions of the Python community +that Python has such wonderful documentation -- Thank You! |
