Comments wanted on new introductory pages

A new set of introductory pages for python.org is being developed. The
current draft of a revised version is at http://www.python.org/topics/learn/ .

If you're learning or have recently learned Python, I'd like to hear
your opinions. Are the pages helpful? Are there useful resources
that aren't linked to, or beginner questions that aren't answered?

Thanks for your help!

I'd like to see a little narrow horizontal python or something at the bottom
of that page indicating end-of-info. I was wondering if some text got cut off,
and actually looked at the page source to check.

Looks very useful though ;-)

Hi I have two questions. Could someone explain to me why Python is case sensitive? I find that annoying. Also, why aren't there multiline comments? Would adding them cause a problem of some sort? Thanks, Elliot
