IPython was started and continues to be led by Fernando Pérez.
Core developers
===============
As of this writing, core development team consists of the following
developers:
* **Fernando Pérez** <Fernando.Perez-AT-berkeley.edu> Project creator and leader,
IPython core, parallel computing infrastructure, testing, release manager.

Code project, work on IPython's core.

infrastructure, IPython core.
* **Benjamin (Min) Ragan-Kelley** <benjaminrk-AT-gmail.com> Parallel computing
infrastructure.
* **Ville Vainio** <vivainio-AT-gmail.com> IPython core, maintainer of IPython
trunk from version 0.7.2 to 0.8.4.

Special thanks
==============
The IPython project is also very grateful to:
Bill Bumgarner <bbum-AT-friday.com>, for providing the DPyGetOpt module that
IPython used for parsing command line options through version 0.10.
Ka-Ping Yee <ping-AT-lfw.org>, for providing the Itpl module for convenient
and powerful string interpolation with a much nicer syntax than formatting
through the '%' operator.
Arnd Baecker <baecker-AT-physik.tu-dresden.de>, for his many very useful
suggestions and comments, and lots of help with testing and documentation
checking. Many of IPython's newer features are a result of discussions with
him.
Obviously Guido van Rossum and the whole Python development team, for creating
a great language for interactive computing.
Fernando would also like to thank Stephen Figgins <fig-AT-monitor.net>,
an O'Reilly Python editor. His October 11, 2001 article about IPP and
LazyPython, was what got this project started. You can read it at
http://www.onlamp.com/pub/a/python/2001/10/11/pythonnews.html.
Sponsors
========
We would like to thank the following entities which, at one point or another,
have provided resources and support to IPython:
* Enthought (http://www.enthought.com), for hosting IPython's website and
supporting the project in various ways over the years, including significant
funding and resources in 2010 for the development of our modern ZeroMQ-based
architecture and Qt console frontend.
* Google, for supporting IPython through Summer of Code sponsorships in 2005
and 2010.
* Microsoft Corporation, for funding in 2009 the development of documentation
and examples of the Windows HPC Server 2008 support in IPython's parallel
computing tools.
* The Nipy project (http://nipy.org) for funding in 2009 a significant
refactoring of the entire project codebase that was key.
* Ohio Supercomputer Center ( part of Ohio State University Research
Foundation) and the Department of Defense High Performance Computing
Modernization Program (HPCMP), for sponsoring work in 2009 on the ipcluster
script used for starting IPython's parallel computing processes, as well as
the integration between IPython and the Vision environment
(http://mgltools.scripps.edu/packages/vision). This project would not have
been possible without the support and leadership of Jose Unpingco, from Ohio
State.
* Tech-X Corporation, for sponsoring a NASA SBIR project in 2008 on IPython's
distributed array and parallel computing capabilities.
* Bivio Software (http://www.bivio.biz/bp/Intro), for hosting an IPython sprint
in 2006 in addition to their support of the Front Range Pythoneers group in
Boulder, CO.
