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. |
