It uses browser based technology instead of wx, but out of the box it has secure logins, etc., and writing new modules for custom functionality is not too hard. And, of course, since it's browser-based you already have remote access built in. -- ~Ethan~ From rshepard at appl-ecosys.com Wed Jun 12 21:41:36 2013 From: rshepard at appl-ecosys.com (Rich Shepard) Date: Wed, 12 Jun 2013 12:41:36 -0700 (PDT) Subject: [portland] Rather than re-invent the wheel ...

I just downloaded distribute_setup.py and moved it over the one in ../virtual_env-1.9.1/virtualenv_embedded. I installed distribute_setup.py from the above subdirectory and now virtualenv installs. Must have been a version mis-match. Thanks very much, Rich -- Richard B. Shepard, Ph.D. | Have knowledge, will travel.

Message-ID: Hey Pythonistas, Below is a message I'm sharing from Audrey Eschright about Open Source Bridge, including the user group discount code you can use to sign up! ----- Dear Portland groups, As you may know, Open Source Bridge, our homegrown open source community conference, is happening next week (June 18-21) at the Eliot Center. This is our fifth annual event, and we want you to help us celebrate 5 awesome years of open source citizenship in Portland. I'd like to remind you of a number of ways user group members can participate in the event. 1) Register to attend the conference using the user group discount code: enter OSBUGLUV at http://osbridge.eventbrite.com 2) Volunteer at the conference. We have a number of open positions to fill. You can volunteer for as little as an hour or two, but signing up for at least 8 hours grants you a free pass to the entire event. Find out how to sign up at http://opensourcebridge.org/wiki/2013/How_to_Sign-Up and plan to attend a volunteer orientation on Monday. 3) If you can't come to the whole conference but you still want to celebrate with us, buy a ticket to the party, Thursday night at OMSI: http://opensourcebridge.org/blog/2013/06/celebrate-open-source-citizenship-at-omsi/ 4) Register for a pay-what-you-can Community Pass, and attend evening BoFs, Hacker Lounge activities, and the Friday unconference. There's still space to schedule your own BoF or Hacker Lounge activity as well (email me and I'll set you up). 5) Tell other people about these things. Spread the love.

In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: I think one of the greatest values of osbridge is that unlike going to the python meetings were we can be reinforced in our love of our language, osbridge offers tons of really great general tech talks, as well as talks about other languages. It is a great opportunity to interact with parts of the open source community that you aren't regularly exposed to. Learn about all sorts of technology that you've been curious about but haven't had the chance to really dive into and investigate, etc. I agree it is light on the python, but as part of the python community, we have no one to blame but ourselves for that. :) -Wraithan On Fri, Jun 14, 2013 at 1:07 PM, Jason Champion wrote: > I'm signed up to go, but I have to ask: > > Are there any parts of the conference that will be of particular interest > to the Python crowd?

I'm reading the docs now (and will continue as time allows next week while I'm on a business trip) so I will be able to ask more intelligent questions after going through the information. I did learn today that I can use an existing database which is already populated. There's a section in the doc that addresses that but I haven't yet read the details (some tables have > 100,000 rows). I suspect that the major learning curve block I'll need to overcome is translating from the newsroom model around which django was developed to the scientific data model I need to implement. No doubt django will do everything I need it to do, it's a matter of me learning how. This application was being developed by a software engineer using Ruby on Rails but he completely disappeared on me just before the last piece of the first phase was in place. I don't know Ruby and I'm not a professional coder or web site/application developer so it will take me time to get up to full speed. Thanks, Rich -- Richard B.

The main library has a meeting room on the right just as you enter the outside doors (I forget the room name). Don't need to enter the main lobby to get there. I have commitments for other groups on Thursdays (1st and 2nd of each month), and I don't recall what evening the R Users Group meets.

'cpython' refers to default the implementation of the Python language. Contrast with PyPy, for example, which is Python implemented in Python. If you "have python-2.6.6 installed", you've got cpython.

Is that what you are looking for? Otherwise, as Bob said. You are good with the default Python that you have.

Standard Python is cpython; cpython is the official reference implementation, and probably the most widely used. There are other variants, such as Jython, PyPy, and Stackless. If you need a different version of Python installed along side of your system Python, that should be possible as well. -- ~Ethan~ From rshepard at appl-ecosys.com Wed Jun 26 03:42:35 2013 From: rshepard at appl-ecosys.com (Rich Shepard) Date: Tue, 25 Jun 2013 18:42:35 -0700 (PDT) Subject: [portland] Relationship of cpython to python In-Reply-To: <51CA3975.9050003@stoneleaf.us> References: <51CA3975.9050003@stoneleaf.us> Message-ID: On Tue, 25 Jun 2013, Ethan Furman wrote: > Standard Python is cpython; cpython is the official reference implementation, > and probably the most widely used. Ethan, A-ha! That's what I always thought. > There are other variants, such as Jython, PyPy, and Stackless. I've heard of jython and wondered why it exists, but PyPy and Stackless are new to me. So, no worries about building pandas. Thanks very much, Rich -- Richard B. Shepard, Ph.D. | Have knowledge, will travel.

Matt, Quick reading confused the two. No, I don't have any interest in the development version. Thanks, Rich -- Richard B. Shepard, Ph.D. | Have knowledge, will travel.
