The Melbourne Python Users Group

map to the meeting

The Melbourne Python Users Group meets on every first Monday of the month (except January). Our current venue is Inspire 9, Level 1 41 Stewart St, Richmond.

We also communicate about the meetings and about anything Python via our mailing list.

Newcomers are always welcome to attend or write to the mailing list, we're a friendly bunch!

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:

The Melbourne Python Users Group meetings are organised by the community itself. Ringleaders/Instigators are RichardJones, Ed Schofield, Tennesee Leeuwenburg, Graeme Cross and Javier Candeira.

CANCELLED - First meetup of the new year: Tue 10th January, Mark Atwood Presenting

Unfortunately Mark Atwood has had to cancel his appearance due to travel problems. With most regulars still on holidays and limited response to a call for alternative presentations, this meeting has regrettably been cancelled.

"Platform as a Service" or PaaS is a popular buzz-word in Cloud Computing. But what does it mean, and how can you use it? OpenShift by Red Hat is a free-as-in-beer and soon to be free-as-in-speech PaaS platform that supports several open-source application server environments, including JavaEE6, Python, Ruby, PHP, and Perl. This demo will show you how to sign up for OpenShift, install and use the command-line tools to create an application, and how to use git to download, modify, and upload your own WSGI and Python applications. You can use your WSGI framework of choice, including Django, Flask, and Bottle.

I'd like to quickly shoot through an outline presentation/workshop I am giving at Linux Users Victoria Beginner's Workshop later in May, I am not a Python programmer but I'm presenting a 2-3 hour workshop for programming neophytes and currently I think Python is the language of choice.

Looking for feedback and suggestions on my approach.
