/gweedo/ , /khweedo/ Without qualification, Guido van Rossum (author of
Python ). Note that Guido answers to English /gweedo/ but in Dutch it's
/khweedo/. Mythically, Guido's most important attribute besides Python
itself is Guido's time machine, a device he is reputed to possess because of
the unnerving frequency with which user requests for new features have been
met with the response I just implemented that last night.... See BDFL.
