+<p>Welcome to the wonderful world of wxPython!</p>
+<p>So where do you go from here? The best thing to do is to run the demo
+and use its source code to help you learn how to use wxPython. Most
+of the classes available are demonstrated there, and you can view the
+sources directly in the demo so it is designed to help you learn. If
+you are on Windows or OS X then you can run the demo just by double
+clicking it's icon. If you are on Linux/Unix then change to the
+directory containing the demo and type:</p>
+<blockquote>
+python demo.py</blockquote>
+<p>There are also some sample mini applications available for you to run
+and to play with as a learning exercise.</p>
+<p>The next thing you should do is join the wxPython-users maillist where
+you can interact with a community of other users and developers who
+are willing to help you learn, answer questions and solve problems.
+To join the mail list just go to this web page and follow the
+instructions there:</p>
+<blockquote>
+<a class="reference" href="http://wxpython.org/maillist.php">http://wxpython.org/maillist.php</a></blockquote>
+<p>There is also a good set of class reference documentation available
+for wxPython, but currently it is geared for the C++ user. This may
+be a little daunting at first, but with a little practice you'll
+easily be able to "mentally translate" from the C++ shown into Python.
+(See <a class="reference" href="http://wiki.wxpython.org/index.cgi/C_2b_2bGuideForwxPythoneers">http://wiki.wxpython.org/index.cgi/C_2b_2bGuideForwxPythoneers</a>
+for a little help on this process.) Not all classes documented are
+available in Python, but most of the GUI related classes are.</p>
