Subject: [melbourne-pug] LCA2012 Open Programming Miniconf -- CFP R1 closes
	Friday!
Message-ID: <CABRwemkYk6qjSdbBPWeXKKsCEBTLJV5aOsuChFqnfiZ-p9-gYQ@mail.gmail.com>

(Apologies for the cross-post; if you know an appropriate mailing list
to pass this on to, please do so :))

Hey there!

This is a friendly reminder that the first round of the Call for
Proposals for the LCA2012 Open Programming Miniconf is closing on
Friday (7 October).  The miniconf is an excellent opportunity for
software developers to share their experiences of using free and open
source development tools.

We strongly encourage first-time LCA presenters to submit a proposal
-- miniconfs are a great way to build up experience in presenting at
conferences like LCA.

If you're interested in presenting, please make sure you get your
proposals in before Friday: this will give you your best chance of
being accepted; after then we'll keep the CFP open indefinitely until
all our spaces have been filled.

To submit a proposal, please fill in the form at
http://tinyurl.com/opm2012-proposal

A formal version of the CFP may be found at
http://chris.neugebauer.id.au/2011/08/29/linux-conf-au-2012-open-programming-miniconf-call-for-proposals-now-open/


I look forward to seeing your proposals!

Working on a very irritating problem.

So am I - it seems today is the day of irritating problems :-(

I'm definitely turning up though*, even if my talk will be a little
rough around the edges ;-)

Is it too late to put my hand up for a very brief talk? It will just
be on something I found regarding python+latex ...

Message-ID: <CADt_azZuHKAYefHdVt6GkhSBL=_onuTHhjsOiDRu6u-w165=DA@mail.gmail.com>

Hello,

 Following up on my talk, here:
https://github.com/silky/latex/tree/master/packages/python is where
you can get python.sty. Read the README for an example of how to use
it, read the comments in python.sty for usage notes.

 There is also a similar style file for "sage" (open source math
package): http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/sagetex

 I recommend considering using python.sty in conjuction with numpy
(matrix math) and pyx (graphs). If you happen to find a way to call
MATLAB from python (I assume it is possible), then MATLAB has a
command: latex("...") which could be use to a beautiful result of
automatic typesetting of various symbolic operations. Of course, to
add the appropriate typesetting for numpy for the matricies wouldn't
be particularly challenging.

Hi Noon,

I'm sorry I missed your talk. It sounds great!

Not sure if your talk covered this, but I can add to your email that sympy
has great support for formatting symbolic maths as LaTeX. So calling Matlab
from Python should be unnecessary :) (at least for beautiful LaTeX output).
See:

    http://docs.sympy.org/0.7.1/tutorial.html#printing

Greetings to all ... from beautiful Lake Tahoe!

Cheers,
    Ed

If so, why don't they have a web presence? If not, is there interest in
starting one? I would be willing to start one, however I am a youngen and
would really want some more experienced people to present, at least at the
start.

Yep, and I sure I would have got around to editing it, however I wanted to
announce it because that way I wouldn't talk myself out of it.

And I, As a GIS person will be specifically turning up to hear you 
present a GIS and python talk :)

Not that Im putting any pressure to perform on you or anything.

But im very interested to see what you have worked out to do with GIS and 
Python.

Cause its one of those new powerfull and cool things..

Just saying..

:)

Hi Rhydwyn,

There isnt as such but there IS the SSSI which is the Surveying and 
Spatial Sciences institute which is the equivilent or SAGE-AU for Spatial 
people.  GIS comes under that field.

http://www.sssi.org.au/

They have regualr meetings and presentations.

I havent actually signed up to it myself. I will probably do so in the 
next few weeks.

Regards,
David Crisp

Well for what it is worth, I haven't worked with GIS and python and haven't
worked with GIS for a while, so my presentation will probably be a broad
overview, and an excuse for me to get going with research so it may well be
all stuff you know. I would love you to come, but it may not be useful.

Hi all,

I've been lurking on the list for a while and planning to come along to a meeting but haven't got there yet.

I'm in a similar situation with this group:
http://www.meetup.com/melbourne-open-gis
Might be what you're looking for.

Python & Latex - two of my favourite words.  Unfortunately I am at Cape
Paterson for some R&R, but am looking forward to finding out what you
found...  Hope the talk goes online.

Yes, we may need to start looking for a new place to meet. Our last
booking for RMIT is November, and from then on it looks like we'll
have to pay for the lecture theatre ($55 plus $105 per hour). $160 per
meeting if we keep the lecture hall use to an hour (which I think is
possible.)

I'm going to contact the PSF to see whether they can cover that cost,
but I'm not sure they'll go for it.

So, please start thinking of alternatives, just in case. Starting
December, in the CBD, with projection facility (and not in a bar with
all the noise.) 10-30 attendees.

Sigh...

I'll ask at work but I'm not sure how keen they are on night-time
access, plus the docklands is quiet as a tomb at that time of night in
terms of places to eat and drink afterwards.

Here's an offer: Python Charmers will sponsor it. :)

I'm thinking that, if we're going to pay anyway, the Hub (673 Bourke St) might be a better venue (more sociable and perhaps more conducive to interesting free-form discussions ? or even hacking). We could order pizzas in there.

The RMIT lecture rooms have been good, but a couple of people have commented that they're too ? well ? lecturish!

What are others' thoughts? I'll investigate prices for the Hub and post back to the list.

Cheers,
    Ed

I think "The Hub" sounds like a pretty exciting place to be located,
if there is a decent meeting room.

Hello list!  There's also the OpenHub, located on 243 Collins Street?

Just waiting for someone to make a ?such and such place is so full of gits, they should call it the github?

I think that's the building called The Donkey Wheel House:

It's pretty cool.

I like rmit but I do feel the lecturish-ness. I think a venue like *hub would be good. I wouldn't mind some hack time after the talks.

The Hub (http://www.hubmelbourne.com/) sounds good - I'm going to try
to check it out this Thursday when it's open.

There is the problem though of how we pay for the space ($120 to
$180). I will also talk to the people there about whether they'd be
willing to support our group and waive the fee. Assuming it's
available.

I misread their prices. We'd be up for $240, possibly $290, per meeting.

Message-ID: <CAFJy=9AbF+EJr=Kv+iE3LiDBpc-+-JFUXXj9YXe8upYfW1HhaA@mail.gmail.com>

Not my favorite, but the public library has a media room that has Mac
PCs and a projector which could serve as  a temporary spot.

	Tech launches
Message-ID: <CAPjwCju3_=PKpJdCSYD1XenV6MOECWAL0rYAhh8jSreFvF0pvA@mail.gmail.com>

Hi,

The group formerly known as AussieChix (Australian chapter of
LinuxChix) has renamed and rescoped itself and is launching as OWOOT.
If you are a geek girl or woman with an open tech bent, please feel
free to join, or pass the word on to other folks who might be
interested.

cheers

Subject: Oceania Women of Open Tech launches

Oceania Women of Open Tech (OWOOT) is a new group for women in open technology
in Australia, New Zealand and the Pacific Islands. It has recently formed from
the local chapters of LinuxChix, but with a wider scope focussing on open
technology generally.

OWOOT welcomes all women interested in open technology, including open source,
open hardware, open data and free culture. OWOOT activities will include:
?- the Haecksen miniconference at linux.conf.au, and meetups and events at
? other conferences
?- periodic local social events
?- email and IRC forums where you can meet other women from the area who work
? with, build or use open technology

OWOOT forums are open to men to join if they wish, as long as they keep in mind
that the purpose of the group is supporting women in open tech and allowing
them to meet each other.

Find out more about OWOOT at our website: http://owoot.org/
Join the OWOOT email list and chat channel: http://owoot.org/Join

Subject: [melbourne-pug] Is Perl better than a randomly generated
	programming language
Message-ID: <CAFsDd-ioi89WXum=9ShsjBv3jJD-wZt+XC2pB7Z2znfTAwH5bw@mail.gmail.com>

Hi all,

Total aside, but people might enjoy
http://developers.slashdot.org/story/11/10/27/213231/is-perl-better-than-a-randomly-generated-programming-language
which
I ran across this morning. Interesting read, but it's also flame-bait.
Slightly worrying to see a few comments on there about how rubbish Python is
because it enforces style though...
