guido - Jargon File (4.4.4, 14 Aug 2003) :
Guido
/gwee'do/, /khwee'do/
Without qualification, Guido van Rossum (author of Python). Note
that Guido answers to English /gwee'do/ but in Dutch it's /khwee'do/.
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...".
