Thanks Michael, and you're right about the work by Steve and Tshepang. But also the community gets a pat on the back on this...part of this came from the docs campaign that Chris did last year.

I still have some more to do on this effort. I need to integrate the suggestions from Jonathan and others, make some corrections, etc.

Then I plan to try a major push on the tutorials. I'm doing Pyramid training in Cambridge in 10 days, with a course also at PyCon/PloneConf Brazil. I'd like to extract that work into a revised, official tutorial that mirrors the structure of the Quick Tour. As part of that, I'd like to just have one "official" tutorial in the docs, move everything else to pyramid_tutorials, then brush up those contributed tutorials.

We'll see how long all that takes. :) But lots to do (clean up the code generated by the scaffolds, for example.) However, it isn't unreasonable to aim for a goal of Pyramid having the best getting-started tutorials of any Python web framework.

Indeed.  Huge props to Paul Everitt for shepherding this effort.  I used
it at two Python hack nights when giving a tutorial/introduction to
Pyramid, and the participants had glowing reviews.  Create a web app in
Pyramid in 5 minutes!  We even got it to work for Windows users.

pyramid/en/1.5-branch/quick_**tour.html#<http://docs.pylonsproject.org/projects/pyramid/en/1.5-branch/quick_tour.html#>

added. It describes starting out with Pyramid from a high level.


An excellent and well-motivated addition!

  Pyramid 1.5a1 has been released.  It is the first alpha release in the
1.5 series.

A "What's New In Pyramid 1.5" document exists at

http://docs.pylonsproject.org/**projects/pyramid/en/1.5-**
branch/whatsnew-1.5.html<http://docs.pylonsproject.org/projects/pyramid/en/1.5-branch/whatsnew-1.5.html>
explaining its differences from previous releases.

You will be able to see the 1.5 release documentation (across all
alphas and betas, as well as when it eventually gets to final release)
at 
http://docs.pylonsproject.org/**projects/pyramid/en/1.5-**branch/<http://docs.pylonsproject.org/projects/pyramid/en/1.5-branch/>.

You can install it via PyPI:

easy_install Pyramid==1.5a1

Enjoy, and please report any issues you find to the issue tracker at

Thanks!
