The main culprit is [mailto:anthony.briggs@gmail.com Anthony Briggs], along with a number of high caliber/hard core pythonistas. We also have a [http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/melbourne-pug mailing list]. | A Facebook group has also been set up to facilitate interactions between MPUGgers, should they prefer that medium.

The next meeting is on August the 18th at 6.30pm, and we'll have two presentations - one on test driven development by Bruce Cropley and another from Richard Jones on pygame. | ||<tablestyle="float:right; margin: 0 0 4px 4px;":> {{http://www.mechanicalcat.net/images/HorseBazaarMap.png}}|| Meetings are held at [[http://horsebazaar.com.au/|Horse Bazaar]]: |

[http://www.whereis.com/whereis/mapping/geocodeAddress.do?advertiserId=&streetNumber=12&streetName=Spring+st&poiType=&suburb=fitzroy&state=Victoria&x=39&y=11 Map to Intrepid Travel] It's pretty close to the 96 and 112 tram, and only a short hop from Parliament station. Not too sure about parking, but there's a fair bit of street parking around, particularly after hours. There are also a large number of cafes and restaurants along Brunswick street. The meeting format is largely ad-hoc, and we're willing to experiment with different ideas, such as lightning presentations, announcements, demos or code/design reviews. If you have an idea, drop Anthony an email or bring it up for discussion, either on the list or at the meeting. |

I then noticed that it had applications to other fields such as bioinformatics (which I won't go into in the talk [unless, of course, there is a particular interest]). It also has a very nice representation in Python - which I will mention. * Richard Jones "Adventures in IronPython" * Add your presentation here! === 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: * PIL * pygame * pyopengl * zope * pypi * distutils * wxPython * Twisted * web/CGI * Databases * Unit Testing * Patterns 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.
