This patch, agains latest CVS, changes three things in
the tutorial:

The subsection "Exceptions Can Be Classes" is removed:
Exceptions _should_ be classes, and the described
behaviour is also documented elsewhere: since string
exceptions are deprecated, they should not be mentioned
in the tutorial because new users will never use them
and it is very improbable that they will ever encounter
them.

The tutorial states that c.l.py receives "around 120
messages" a day. A note is added that there are peaks
with up to several hundreds of postings (i.e. pep-308).

The tutorial mentions www.python.org and
starship.python.net. I have added a link to parnassus,
because every Python user should know about its existence.
