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. Below is the information for a series of evening meetings that were organised over 2005/2006. Meetings since have been organised ad-hoc via the mailing list around once per year.

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.

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. Or just edit the wiki directly - that's what it's all about, after all :)
