Re: [python-uk] Reminder: London Python Code Dojo Tomorrow
A quick write-up of last night's code dojo: http://ntoll.org/article/london-python-code-dojo-2 The beer and crisps Pyssup is next Wednesday (unfortunately I can't make it). I've also just realised that during the round-up session last night we mentioned we should start a pattern of holding it on the third Thursday of every month. Unfortunately, I've just realised that the Pyssup guys "bagsied" the third "x" of every month for their event. Might I suggest we move the dojo to the first Thursday of the month so we keep some space between these events..? That'll mean the next Dojo will be on Thursday 3rd November, 6:30pm at Fry-IT's offices. Anyone have any problems with this..? As always, comments and suggestions welcome, Nicholas.

Re: [python-uk] ANN: Next October Pyssup: Wednesday 21st Oct.
Hi Bruce Currently our only criteria is good ale and somewhere central. So far we haven't been to the same venue twice, but I imagine we'll settle on a few favorites soon.

Re: [python-uk] Reminder: London Python Code Dojo Tomorrow
1st Thursday of the month works for me. Let me know when we have enough consensus to post a new announcement. I still think after tic-tac-toe we should do a series of dojos to build a event management site so we don't have to use eventwax/upcoming/meetup/etc. :-) cheers, Bruce ___ python-uk mailing list python-uk@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-uk
Re: [python-uk] Reminder: London Python Code Dojo Tomorrow
I wouldn't mind carrying on with the tic-tac-toe code. Perhaps the next thing we could work on is a wrapper that uses raw_input and print to make the game playableish on the console. Advantage is that we're building something on something we have built as a team. Frankly I wouldn't mind seeing, as Tim pointed out, something of a spec. Nothing formal but just a todo list so we don't have to guess what to build next. 2009/10/16 Bruce Durling : > 1st Thursday of the month works for me.

Re: [python-uk] Reminder: London Python Code Dojo Tomorrow
I agree with continuing with Tic-tac-toe... it was a lot of fun and I think it still has much mileage. Didn't someone suggest that next time we do an informal requirements capture/user story on the whiteboard during the pizza and beer part of the evening..? Cheers, Nicholas.
