Notes:
(1) Many of you many not be aware of the fabulously successful 'Guido
for President' Campaign. While Guido has no interest in being the
president, the PSA thought it would be a cool way to collect money.
The centerpiece of the campaign featured an attractive offer to spend
the night in Guido's spare bedroom in exchange for a $50,000.00
contribution. (Mark Lutz stayed TWICE!)
(2) Since the proliferation of Monty Python related names (Python,
Monty, Grail, Eric-the-Half-a-Compiler, et al.) has increased over the
past year, the PSA felt it would be wise to licencing the Python name
to forestall any lawsuits. An added benefit is that John Cleese is
teaching Guido how to walk funny.
(3) Pre-Release vacations are spent in the Catskills. Post-Release
vacations are spent in the Bahamas. Guido is currently working on a
system which will allow him to make more releases of Python; thus
octupling the number of vacations he takes in a year.
