Speaking for myself - I've been messing around with various programming languages most of my life (I'm 21, young...). I've done a lot of work in C++, and a little bit in a whole lot of other languages. It took me around 6 hours to learn enough python to write a non-trivial app with it. I've been working with python for a little more than a month, and I'm starting to feel like I know the language decently - I don't have to look stuff up as much - but I'm still learning, as there's a lot to learn. As for how long it takes to become a professional programmer using python, I guess that depends on your definition of professional. I do freelance work, and I'm currently working on a python project - and I have relatively little experience with python, if you measure that in time. Keep a copy of the official docs handy, and always review your options for solving a particular problem and you should catch on pretty well in a relatively short amount of time. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
