First tutorial is up

What a day. Word got out about Django, even though we haven't officially launched, and that gave us more attention than we were ready for.

People blogged it. People bookmarked it. One guy even wrote an unofficial tutorial to pick up our slack!

At any rate, we spent all day (and night) continuing to prepare things, answering feedback in #django on freenode.net -- and writing our first official Django tutorial. It covers basic Django setup, creation of models and the database API.

Hi. That unofficial tutorial might fit under homepages link 'tutorial', for which the destination page is currently missing. [http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/tutorial/]

Also, any comparision between Cheetah and Django might be cool reading.

Great work!

I'm thinking a comparison between Subway (http://subway.python-hosting.com) and Django would be even better. They seem to sit right in the same space.
