Hey shabda, nice work. I have been following your blog posts to learn django as well. They are great resource for django noobs. The initial chapters of this book pretty look good.
Woah there, thanks for the hint :) Will be quite useful for me.
Thanks. Most of the writing is being done by http://github.com/tuxcanfly though. Please use the book and leave feedback.
It looks very promising. One thing that I think is often neglected is how to properly modify the admin interface to make it useful for all the little things you want to do. The admin interface is really useful and helps you get started fast, but it's a lot harder to grok and modify than models, forms and "vanilla" objects.
