The core language is pretty much the same. If you forget about the new advanced features, a major difference is the removal of old stuff not needed any more. So basic 3.0 should be a bit easier to learn. So my advice (probably minority yet) would be to start with 3.0 (once the first beta is out next week) and move back when you have a need to. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
