I know this is not a job board, but being an old user of wxPython (but not
of late) this job
<http://www.indeed.com/viewjob?jk=e8325500984fc7f9&q=wxpython&tk=1a0md0gcc1pot9c2&from=ja&alid=90487f86eaabc83b&utm_source=jobseeker_emails&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=job_alerts>
would make my mouth water (I can't move from Omaha, though)

Thanks for the reminder Hubert.

Wes - are you offering to present?  We did not select a topic at last
months' meeting, so this month is available.

We usually skip the December meeting, so we have October and November to
schedule.

Well since no one has forwarded a major talk, maybe Lightning Talks.
What is a lightning talk, you ask?

It would be great if we could get 3 or 4 people to commit to giving a
shorter format talk.  They are much easier to prepare, you don't have to be
an expert in the subject, just passionate.  The goal of a successful
lightning talk is to generate interest in the subject matter.  We could put
a 10 minute hard time limit on each talk.  Talk about anything even
tangentially associated with Python.  Do you like Project Euler -- you've
can have 10 minutes to introduce it to others who may not have heard or
know very little about it.  Do you know about a useful library -- 5 to 10
minutes is a great way to let others know about it.

If you haven't given a talk before, you couldn't find a better group and
format for your first.   Sounds like fun right, so who's first?

I have the smaller room booked at APMA if you want to meet here.

Wes mentioned presenting about shell quoting and ways to wrap execve in
either Oct or Nov, but we have not confirmed it.
@Wes - will Oct or Nov work for you?

I enjoy an occasional lightning talk/bring your python questions night, so
either sounds great to me.

I apologize for not getting on this right after the September meeting - I
had good intentions ?
