        There is an email list called ProPython
(http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/propython) that was started by a
group of Visual FoxPro developers who are taking up Python. So it is
definitely newbie-friendly, and has many people willing to help walk
you through the learning process. And with your database programming
background, you're sure to fit in with a Fox-flavored crowd!
