This is their wiki.  Note that the documentation includes 
http://docs.python.org/tutorial/.  Also note the three other wiki pages 
linked at the top:

  http://wiki.python.org/moin/BeginnersGuide/Overview
  http://wiki.python.org/moin/BeginnersGuide/NonProgrammers
  http://wiki.python.org/moin/MovingToPythonFromOtherLanguages

But I would like to hear from someone who learned python whether a page 
full of links is useful.  A long list always raises the question:  
Which one should you start with?

Linking from /tutorials/ to similar pages on the perl5 wiki is one idea.
