Power is something you create. Did you know that you, too, can be head
of an open source project the size of Python? It's easy. Just start
one!

Go to GitHub, Google Code, BitBucket, SourceForge (they all seem to
have exactly two capital letters in them - must be important), or any
other such site, and start coding your new and most awesome language.
You can even make yourself a mailing list so that you can get your
revenge on the Evil Python Mafia (hereunder and hereafter the EPM) by
ignoring every patch ever submitted!
