| 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 can get to the back-side of the CSIT building and arrive between 5:45 and 6pm there should be some fellow pythoneers around this vicinity to help point you in the right direction. | Also for luck: [[ https://github.com/canberra-python/README ]] |
