| 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. | Meetings are hosted by Computer Science at ANU and are held in room N101, CSIT building ANU. |

The Canberra Python Users Group
Last Wednesday of every month
Newcomers are always welcome; we're a friendly bunch and female-friendly 
The responsible parties are Ed Schofield and Elena Williams, along with a number of other Python folk.
There's a meetup.com group to track numbers etc. Please join up and add yourself to the group! We'll keep you posted with announcements about the meetings. http://www.meetup.com/Canberra-Python-Meetup-Group/.
Meetings are hosted by Computer Science at ANU and are held in room N101, CSIT building ANU.
