To Samuel Williams: (and other interested ;-) If you want to consider Python in education, I would encourage you have a look at http://www.python.org/community/sigs/current/edu-sig/
I think you will find that there are quite a few resources available - perhaps more than you are aware of. And, I don't think that because "some people do not like the indentation strategy" is a valid reason not to consider that Python's syntax is concise and simple. Actually, I would almost argue for the contrary. Indentation indicate programming structure/logic very clearly, without the need for arbitrary keywords and other punctuation symbols. There are very few keywords in the language. You indicate that Python programs are readable. They are also known to be short (much shorter than some other languages).
