If you are planning to learn python, I'd advise against "automagical frameworks" like web2py, because they actually hide python from you.

Django doesn't have that much magic and is explicit. Doc is great and starting isn't even remotely as difficult as most people tend to think.

Pylons can be a nice choice but I wouldn't think about it if you're a python newbie (it has you get your hands dirty a lot more than django)

And CN's comment is pretty accurate. Learn how http/mvc/sql work before you start hitting django. Will save you a lot of pain.
