I've uploaded a very early release to http://ece.arizona.edu/~edatools/PyBat Contributions are welcome, anything that has good tutorial value - solutions to problems on JavaBat, Project Euler, Challenge-You, Michel's nifty list comprehensions, your own ideas. Just be sure to credit original authors, even if their work was only an inspiration for yours. A link to the original source is best. See the example in module PyBat.SOLUTIONS.List1.make2 in the file PyBat.zip at the above link.
Athar Hameed has volunteered to build an interactive website, most likely on Google's App Engine.
