If anyone is looking for a programmer that does either or both the
front end UI & HTML design / development work as well as Python
server side coding.
Let's talk as I am l looking for new opportunities.
Cheers,

From my perspective, it's been hard to find python developers in the
Seattle area - but I've found that hiring a "good developer" means
that I can have a reasonably proficient python developer in a matter
of weeks.
As to what SEAPIG could do about that? I'm afraid I don't have any
immediately or brilliant suggestions.

Semi-related to Jeff's question, I have a question for business
leaders/employers. I've heard from a few quarters recently that
it's
hard to find experienced Python programmers: most of them have
existing jobs they don't want to leave, and so projects go
unfulfilled
because managers can't find experienced ("senior") Python programmers
to do them. (Of course, often the jobs require other specialized
skills alongside Python, so that narrows it further.) I've heard that
this is mainly Google's fault: that Google has been hiring so many
Python programmers it has caused a hole in the industry. I've also
heard that "we" (the Python community) should do something about this
-- i.e. get more CS types to learn Python in college -- otherwise
employers will start turning away from Python because they can't find
enough programmers.
How much of this is true? Have you been able to find Python people
easily or with a moderate amount of effort? If not, what can or
should
we, SeaPIG, do about it?
