Python is fun (useless social thread) ;-)

> Did you have to learn it for a job?

No, I learned it because Perl was too dirty and Java to complicated.
Now it is part of my daily job.

> Also, how did you go about learning it?

Programming, reading this newsgroup, reading the python cookbook, 
reading python source files of the standard library.

I tried wxPython, but switched to pygtk. And I did some cgi programming
with quixote and ZODB.
 
> Are there still some things you feel you need to learn or improve?

There are some things in Python I don't know very well: Decorators and
generators. But somehow I don't think that I really need them.
