The location for the Debian SIG is good, and central. I remember you saying
you wanted it slightly northerly though. Northerly is bad for locations
(having lived northerly for most of my life, I can say that). ;)
Perhaps somewhere in North Sydney?

Second Tuesdays after Meetings are ctte meetings, so it can't be then.

Perhaps kicking off with some introductory talks... "Python for Beginners",
"Python for Perl Hackers", "A Complete Project in Python", etc.
I hereby offer to do a talk on a project I'm cooking up at the moment. I
have to actually finish it first (it's an object persistence thingy. Very
fruit of the month).

Schweet.

YEAH! There's a gearstick on every lazy arse, and it wants some pulling.
Thanks Mary,
