What I must read to be python savvy?
bayareaguy: I'd recommend reading the code in the Python standard library.  If you're into web stuff in addition to Django I'd say the web.py[1] and Trac[2] sources are worth reading.  If you're looking at a larger project, the Mercurial[3] sources are good.  Also sign up at Google App Engine[4] and build a few trivial applications.  You'll learn a lot.1- http://github.com/webpy/webpy/tree/master2- http://trac.edgewall.org/browser/trunk/trac3- http://mercurial.selenic.com/hg/hg/file4- http://code.google.com/appengine/Oh if you're into Django check out http://7days7apps.com too.
