There are a couple of opportunities coming up if you're attending
PyCon next month:

- You can lead an Open Space on "Teach Me Pyramid and Python", and
those who are available will come and help (and others may bring their
own questions). Other people have done this with frameworks they
wanted to learn.

- If there's a Pylons Project booth in the exhibition hall (is there
this year?), you can talk with some of the core developers there.

If you won't be at PyCon, there may be a similar conference in your
region or a local users' group in your city with people who know
Pyramid. python.org has a list of users' groups. You may find someone
willing to review your program outline or code drafts, and perhaps you
can buy them something like a programming book they want in return. In
my earlier days I might have offered to mentor but now I can't make
commitments... unless possibly you happen to live in Seattle.

Otherwise you can ask specific questions on this list or the IRC
channel. That's what I do when I don't understand something or can't
get something to work.

I learned Python from the standard documentation and using it. Pyramid
has a bit of a learning curve because it has some different paradigms
from PHP or other Python frameworks, but that's what makes it scalable
to large and complex situations or changing out a library if you need
those someday. The Pyramid manual explains a lot, the tutorials should
help, and you can ask questions for anything beyond that.
