I think what works best for you works best for us.

Learning python is easy (especially if you know java) but you don't have
to. Gump3 is architected in a way so that different modules can be built
with different languages, the idea was to capture more people that way.

But I suggest you start reading the excellent "dive into python"
(http://diveintopython.org/) just to get a sense of what it is.

I heard good things on RoR, but nobody here knows Ruby and we are trying
to increase the community size not decrease it ;-)

We would hope that to be the case too.

So, make yourself at home, follow Leo's excellent directions and let us
know how you feel when you get there.
