Two things were not mentioned: 1. Work on an existing project that is based on Python. The "Launchpad" of ubuntu has a great environment for a project. There are many existing projects in which to participate. Even Bazaar's GUI version is programmed in Python with PyQt for the GUI proper. You will get a lot out of participation in an existing project, probably a lot more than you input. Ultimately it is how much you input that is of of most benefit to you yourself. 2. I failed to see questions and suggestions of platform to work from. Your experience, interests, and computer platform will determine what is useful to you and what is less useful. 3. Finally, it is important to have a project about which you can master enough enthusiasm to persist. "What project " depends very much on item 2. May the favourable wind fill your sails, OldAl. -- Algis http://akabaila.pcug.org.au/StructuralAnalysis.pdf
