My indented audience was not the pure beginners. I was targeting for developers coming to python from other platforms. Over past 2 years, if I have learned one thing while training interns, trainees and experience devs in Python/Django, it is that packaging confuses people a lot. apt-get vs easy_install vs pip. That is why I choose to spend most time on package management and virtualenv etc. I think, I should have included stronger indications of this.
In general, your feedback is very good and important. Idiomatic Python specifically is an important resource and should have been included.
I will incorporate your feedback as soon as I can squeeze out some time.
This happens to me all the time. My most favorite is when I have to type the word "important", my mind spells "I M P O R T A N T" but my fingers instinctively stop at "import".

Big Thanks!
