[SIGCIS-Members] Python

[Danny Spitzberg]

Hi Troy-

Here’s a short history of Python’s community governance transition.

The case study speaks to larger issues of the language and the core

that enable Python to persevere. It also includes a few links to sources
for further inquiry.

Warmly,
Danny
