| Meetings are hosted by Computer Science at ANU and are held in room N101, CSIT building ANU. This can be tricky to find the first time: it's a semi-circular glass-fronted meeting room directly south of the large bike cage which is located behind the CSIT building. If you arrive between 6 and 6.30 there should be some fellow pythoneers around this vicinity to help point you in the right direction if you can get to the back-side of the CSIT building. | == Venue == Renewables Hub 19 Moore St Canberra ACT 2601 Australia |

| '''15 minute talks''' * "Talk" - Name === Potential Topics === If you're not sure on a topic, or don't want to give a presentation, perhaps you could give us an idea of topics or areas that you would like to hear about - that way we can encourage people who have that particular area of expertise, but who might be wavering. Some topics that have been suggested are: * Django * PIL * pygame * pyopengl * zope * pypi * distutils * wxPython * Twisted * web/CGI * Databases * Unit Testing * Patterns * web2py If you feel qualified to give a talk/presentation on any of these, let me know and I'll schedule you in for a timeslot. Or just edit the wiki directly - that's what it's all about, after all :) ---- |
