<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">I'm completely new to this list (and Python) so I just wanted to say hello and introduce myself. </font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">I have a lot of experience with Perl, but I've been hearing enough good stuff about Python that it seems like I'm overdue time to pick it up. My early readings (from O'Reilly's LEARNING PYTHON) lead me to believe that it should be an excellent language for GUI apps, scientific computing, and cross-platform apps. Along with reading the O'Reilly book, I hope this list will get me up to speed quickly.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Does anyone have an opinion on the MIGRATING FROM PERL TO PYTHON (or something like that; has a snake on the cover) book out there? I'm considering picking that one up.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Thanks, and I look forward to learning Python and participating in this list!<br>
