Message from Nick to Python-uk mailing list. If you're on both lists, my apologies. I know I've not been able to make it to python-northwest in ages, but hey. (clashes with cubs/etc)
Michael. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Nicholas H.Tollervey <[email protected]> Date: 25 September 2015 at 14:25 Subject: [python-uk] MicroPython / BBC micro:bit at Python user groups in the UK To: UK Python Users <[email protected]> Hi Folks, So the BBC have realised that MicroPython is really a thing that works. They've said they would be up for loaning us micro:bit devices for community events over the Autumn (heavy emphasis on the word *loan* here). :-) If you're interested in having your evening user group become a "hey let's play with MicroPython on the micro:bit" type affair please let me know via this list. I suspect I'll have to attend in person to chaperone the devices but that also means you get me to do a talk on MicroPython and the device itself. I may also be able to arrange some funky peripheral devices (a micro:bit robot car for example) to be included. My aim is two-fold: * Testing / feedback on MicroPython on the micro:bit * Idea / resource generation kickstart I'm based near Northampton so Oxford, Brum and Cambridge are easy to get to. My folks live in north Nottinghamshire so "oop north" is within striking distance if I combine that with a trip back home. Scotland is a totally different matter but I do have relatives in south Wales I could combine into a weekend trip to Cardiff if anyone is interested. These would need to be evening events since I actually do a "real job" during the day. :-) Also, I'd need to know potential dates ASAP. Any takers..?
