Thanks Damien, I also sent it to the PyOAS list. Ok, so I just learned that there are Software Carpentry "capstones". Maybe my "Lecture 5" could be made into one? http://nbviewer.ipython.org/github/C2SM/pyws-BE-15-2-26/blob/master/ex5/lecture5.ipynb
There is a huge cluster of topics that are specific for the geosciences community. One problem is the large number of often competing modules. E.g. Cartopy or basemap? CDAT or Iris? netcdf4 or PyNIO? .... My vision is a canonical set of tools, both defined and made accessible by corresponding swc - lessons ...
