I'm planning this little meetup for open sorcerers and doctors (as in medical) and am modeling it after BarCamp.
If any of you on edu-sig see shallow bugs or other patches you want to make, here's from some actual recent correspondence sent to a doc friend of mine. Take pot shots at will... """ My model is Portland Barcamp but without the cubes (McMenamins tables and booths instead -- same idea). Dunno if we have wireless -- not having a major blow to the analogy. Barcamp doesn't mean a Camp for Wild Drinking (one meaning of "Bar"). Rather, in geek world, we use FUBAR (a military acronym) as a source of Foo and Bar. These then become the nonsense syllables we so often need to stand for "whatever". FooCamp was taken by O'Reilly (the publisher and guy, Tim). BarCamp materialized soon thereafter, or so goes the lore. """ So what if anything does this have to do with Python? I think of Python mainly as a candidate controller in this very generic picture here in my blog: http://controlroom.blogspot.com/2007/09/more-curriculum-writing-re-mvc.html Probably missing Pirate Festival this upcoming weekend, given it's also Race for the Cure, plus "working vacation" Friday (hotel in the boonies).
