I just started working/learning python this weekend and I have to admit its a really nice language. The import mechanism is a little weird to me
(apple basic->c->visual basic->c++->MASM->php4&5) but its nice to be working with some sort of namespaced syntax.
So far about 1/3 of the way through the python reference documentation for the language. Mainly the real point of my post was to ask if anyone else has gone from php/java to python and what gotchas they found. The other question is, is there some sort of python repository for packages? PHP has pecl&pear, coldfusion has whatever Adobe hosts, and of course .net has MSDN.... so it seems kind of odd that there nothing the casual googler can find for python extension packages/modules.
