This forum has a little bit of everything. I think they just started the site.

They have a VDHL tutorial:
VHDL CPLD Course Introduction
Created on: 28 November 2012

This VHDL course introduces the VHDL language and then provides a series of tutorials that demonstrate the use of VHDL running on a Xilinx CPLD. It starts with some very basic and easy examples that will get the beginner in VHDL started comfortably.

I'm actually just getting into FPGA's at the moment!

I will be posting my findings (eventually) but am quite busy with work at the moment...

I took college courses on programming so I know what I have to learn when learning a computer language and I bought one of those books on programming from the "Dummies" series and it was a little worse than my college course. I think that if teachers are going to teach adults, they should start with kids because if kids can get it, anyone can get it. That is probably why I think the book on Python for kids would probably be good for adults too.

Although there are some kids out there who could outsmart a whole heap of adults :)
