Hi, I'd be interested in coming to Thoughtworks, Koramangala for a meetup on Sunday afternoon. I am a new member here so I'll just add a quick introduction.

You might join the next meeting perhaps. The checked the wiki but did not find much details about the meeting. We are lazy to write the minutes of the meeting. Perhaps we need someone who is interested in writing the minutes (and he/she sees some form of personal benefit in doing so). Roughly we discussed the following. * Python 3.1 - How to get started with it. * Subtopics included Unicode vs Strings. Strings vs Bytes. Whats new * in python * Brad showed the audience some interesing programming paradigms used at ZeOmega for their purposes. * We discussed about logging module of Python * Discussed about PyCon and Brad shared some of his thoughts on how PyCon is organized. The essence of PyCon, etc. The meeting started around 2:00 /2:30 ( I was unfortunately late at 3:00 pm) and went till 6:30 pm. I enjoyed it, I learnt a lot of things and I hope others enjoyed the meet too. -- Senthil Your society will be sought by people of taste and refinement. ___ BangPypers mailing list BangPypers@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/bangpypers

Re: [BangPypers] User group meeting this weekend
So are we confirmed for meeting at the ZeOmega RLP office at 2pm? Does everyone know how to find it? I don't have an organized talk with slides but I can show off some of the source code we're using at ZeOmega, to provide usage examples of Storm, nose testing, closures, Python logging, zope.component as a standalone library, dateutil, memoize approach to caching...depending on what people are interested in seeing. However, I think it might be more interesting/fun to plan some coding sprints involving Python 3.1. There is a lot of work to be done in the community in getting libraries updated for Python 3.1, and I don't really know much about Python 3.1. We could do a 'teach me Python 3' session, similar to Steve Holden's 'teach me Twisted' open space meeting from PyCon US 2008. It's an interesting format; one person leads the questioning of a group of experts, providing an entertaining banter for onlookers (who can also ask questions of course). It might be a good way to get the whole group up to speed on Python 3 without anyone having to put together formal training materials.
