Guido remains Python’s principal author, although it includes many contributions from others.</p> <p>In 1995, Guido continued his work on Python at the Corporation for National Research Initiatives (CNRI, see <a class="reference external" href="https://www.cnri.reston.va.us/">https://www.cnri.reston.va.us/</a>) in Reston, Virginia where he released several versions of the software.</p> <p>In May 2000, Guido and the Python core development team moved to BeOpen.com to form the BeOpen PythonLabs team. In October of the same year, the PythonLabs team moved to Digital Creations (now Zope Corporation; see <a class="reference external" href="https://www.zope.org/">https://www.zope.org/</a>). In 2001, the Python Software Foundation (PSF, see <a class="reference external" href="https://www.python.org/psf/">https://www.python.org/psf/</a>) was formed, a non-profit organization created specifically to own Python-related Intellectual Property. Zope Corporation is a sponsoring member of the PSF.</p> <p>All Python releases are Open Source (see <a class="reference external" href="https://opensource.org/">https://opensource.org/</a> for the Open Source Definition).
