I can arrange announcements like posting up on the python list, facebook, etc. since I organise most of the meet ups in Dublin.
Setting up the venue will have to someone who's local in Galway, prob easiest. Just remember to CC me when you have information, I'll spam, I mean, I'll post about it in the relevent places online. For Mick (Twomey) and I, we'll be at EuroPython all week, so won't make it. Oh, we don't really use the wiki that much, as we are in the midst of re-doing the python.ie site (I'm a bit preoccupied with this new house moving thingy atm). But, if you still want to post to wiki, Mick (Twomey) will give you access, and the current python.ie site, ask Sean O'Donnell to post up meet up information and dates. It would be nice to have talks in Galway, encourage more people to go (from all over Ireland, okay, from Dublin). Regards, /// Vicky PS: If you want tips on organising a local meet up, don't hesistate to ask us (or me). ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~ http://irishbornchinese.com ~~ ~~ http://www.python.ie ~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ On Fri, Jun 26, 2009 at 8:28 PM, Uldis Bojars <[email protected]> wrote: > > Hi All, > > The idea for Python Galway meetups is still live. > > Sorry for the long silence, though.
