Re: What was your strategy?
I used "a non programmers tutorial to python" by Josh coglatti. Its a free wikibook too. Then I carried on to "the guide to python". Hope this helps and good luck! - Braden Faulkner - Braden Faulkner -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Re: Python documentation too difficult for beginners
A tutorial type book can also be great for reference and documentation (as long as its current). I would recommend a non-programmers tutorial to python even if you have started programming in other languages before. Also its a wiki book and is free. -Braden Faulkner Sent wirelessly from my BlackBerry device on the Bell network.

Re: Commercial or Famous Applicattions.?
Mailman is of course. As well as redhats anaconda installer and google uses python internally for many of there "medium sized" projects. Also, calibre, gwibber, portage pms, ubuntu software center, YUM pms and many others including YouTube. Moral is many big companies do both for products and internally.
