If you're interested: I wrote an extended follow-up to the 1.4 tutorial that is a bit more real-world: using South for migrations, bootstrap templates, learning to use the forms library, adding popular apps like debug-toolbar and so on, writing annotation and aggregation queries, etc. See the "courseware" link at http://simeonfranklin.com/pro-django-class/

I'll check it out, thanks!

Note that with this latest release, the tutorial from the official docs has been revamped and expanded.

Having worked on both the revamped tutorial and http://django.2scoops.org, I approve this conversation thread. ;-)
