[Microbit-Python] Status updates... Open Source and upcoming Python user group MicroPython / micro:bit events

[Matthew Else]

Maybe a good way to appeal to the eleven year olds who care that it’s built using micropython, or have never heard of micropython and wonder what it is (I’d have been one of those), maybe there should be a link to something 11y/o friendly with the text ‘made possible by micropython’ or words to that effect?

Speaking frankly, I doubt if the 11-year-old cares a whit whether it's
built with MicroPython or not. It's more about advertising to the wider
audience.
 
 
 This is like wondering if 11-year-olds care what oil and gas companies sponsor a particular race car driver.  How should we present the logo on the car, to best speak to the 11-year-olds watching?  ;-)
