Thanks to everyone who came out to the monthly meeting Tuesday night. And two loud shouts out to Chris Pitzer for his talk on Learning Javascript from Python <http://lofiart.com/files/learning_js_from_python.zip>, and to Adam Lowry for demoing the traceback<http://docs.python.org/library/traceback.html>and cgitb <http://docs.python.org/library/cgitb.html> modules.
If I weren't me I would shout at myself for talking about why everyone should be giving talks, which I hope has inspired everyone on this list to come and talk to the group about something (anything Pythonic, even if it's just for 5 minutes). Lightning talks are welcome at every single meeting, and we always have Michel's Module of the Month, another great opportunity to do a short talk. Everyone is *highly* encouraged to give speaking a try! If you have an idea for a talk topic, let us know at [email protected] or ping dael or jek in #pdxpython on Freenode. There's still room on the schedule for May's meeting<http://www.meetup.com/pdxpython/events/17292154/> ! Speaking of May's meeting (that's on May 10th, at 6:30pm), we're doing a raffle that you won't want to miss. Here's the list of items so far: * One ticket to the Open Source Bridge conference<http://opensourcebridge.org/>in June! * One black Python logo coffee/tea mug * One Python logo whisky glass * A set of Python 3 tutorial videos * One Django shirt (size Large) * I think I'm forgetting something And, speaking of Open Source Bridge, one last reminder: there's still time to make your voice heard about the sessions you'd like to see. If you'd like to influence the selection committee, please read the proposals<http://opensourcebridge.org/events/2011/proposals> and leave comments by this Saturday night. See you next month!
