Melbourne Python Users Group
Yesterday I attended the first meeting of the Melbourne Python Users Group (this is a temporary page, soon to be replaced with a more useful and permanent one); kudos to Anthony Briggs for organizing it, getting people interested, providing a venue and giving the first presentation!
As is the case with almost all first meetings, this one consisted mostly of people getting to know each other: there was a quick round of presentations after the first few people arrived, and a larger, slightly more formal round once everyone was there. In total, some 15 people attended. After that, Anthony gave his presentation on automation, some people volunteered to give talks in the next meetings (the next one will be on Twisted, by Justin Warren), and people went out for dinner (I went home at this point).
The next meeting will be in one month (no date was actually set while I was there, but I’m betting on either the 14th or 21st of July). If anyone else is interested, there is a mailing list where you can talk to people, ask questions, or even volunteer to talk about something you like.
