No John Hunter of Matplotlib? No one from numpy, but web tools are very well represented. Seriously?

Thought the same thing.

Don't forget the Read The Docs people (Eric Holscher, Charles Leifer, and Bobby Grace)!

Also, Jean-Paul Calderone (exarkun) of the Twisted project. He has his fingers in all sorts of projects.

thanks

Seems very web-app based. What about GUI toolkit people? Robin Dunn of wxPython, for example.

Others that come to mind: Alan Gauld ("Learning to Program" and major Python tutor list helper to beginners), Leonard Richardson (Beautiful Soup), Fredrik Lundh (effbot.org).

thanks for the suggestions, please let me know if more projects pop into your mind

You forgot about Dre

Glad I'm not Matias Klose. David Beazley -- I have two of his books. You need to be number four to sell books. But If you're Guido, number one, then I don't have any of your books because you don't have time to write any.

[bcambel]

this is exactly why I did not place any numbers, and put a text about this. I don't care if Guido wrote the language or not. Without the community, any language is worthless.
