Hello all,

I've never posted on here before but I thought I'd give you the heads up on
this:

http://www.digitaltv-labs.com/?go=Careers&s=PSE

I work for the same company maintaining their site. Maybe someone will be
interested.

That sounds like a great job. I'm happy with my current position, but it 
is encouraging that there are great Python roles out there!

Just a reminder - the London Python meetup is on for tomorrow evening.
I have Tim Golden down to tell us about WMI, Andy Robinson to talk
about "personalised publishing" using Django, plus quickies from Giles
Thomas on Resolver and Chris Miles on PSI.

If you are planning on coming, please leave a comment - I need to get
numbers for pizza. ;-)

Since we're going to your office first rather than to the pub,
what's the protocol for getting in? (Or is that not really an
issue?)

I'm very sorry but it looks like I will be unable to make it tomorrow
due to some unexpected but serious work deadlines that have emerged in
the last 2 days.

I'm hoping the others can talk more slowly and in more detail or
someone else can speak, but if this forces you into the pub early,  my
apologies!  I'll be ready to give this one again at some future date.

Just a follow-up; please pass on my thanks to ThoughtWorks for allowing 
us the space - very generous of them.

Something we discussed was rather than occurring every 8 weeks, would it 
possible to have this monthly (perhaps similarly 2nd Wednesday of every 
month? i.e. 14th Nov?).

Blue Fountain is looking for a web application developer. At least  
one year experience of developing a variety of web application  
systems in an open source environment is required. Two would be helpful.

We build and maintain systems using open source technologies,  
especially Python (Zope, Plone, Django), Rails, PostgreSQL, Linux and  
Apache. Knowledge of HTML, CSS, Ajax and some web standards are  
essential. Knowledge of some of the tools languages is helpful, but  
not essential, you will be in an environment to learn and grow. The  
most powerful tool you'll be using is Google.

Message-ID: <351D5674-4E87-49A5-9B64-FA837D8ACE51@tibsnjoan.co.uk>

At PyconUK, Zeth Green strongly suggested that local Python
groups should be formed.

The first meeting of the Cambridge & East Anglia (or whatever we
decide to call it) Python group will be on Tuesday 30th October
at the Carlton Arms (www.thecarltonarms.co.uk) in Cambridge.
I shall be there from 7pm. I shall have a furry snake (not,
unfortunately, a Python) and/or a Python book with me, in case
I'm not recognisable from the conference.

The pub has a good reputation, decent food and a range of beers.
I've got a table put aside for between 4 and a dozen people --
if there should be more of us, they don't mind furniture being moved.

If you know you'll be coming, I'd appreciate an email to let me know.
It would also be nice to know if you *can't* make it, but would have
liked to.

New meeting of the Python North-West community!

This month's talk is:
- Michael Sparks on "Greylisting with Kamaelia" - dramatic spam
reduction with a few lines of Python.

After the talk, you'll be able to showcase your cool python stuff, get
tips from others, have a chat with fellow-minded python geeks... and
relax with free refreshments and nibbles. Free wifi will also be
provided.

The meeting will take place at the Manchester Digital Development Agency,
Lower Ground Floor, 117-119 Portland Street,
Manchester, England M1 6ED.
Thanks to the MDDA folks, who again let us use their facilities free of charge.

Location map and further details are at
http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/303512.  If can't find the venue on
the day, call 0779 6690731 and we'll rescue you.

If you want to give a second (brief) talk at this meeting (or the main
talk at the next one, why not...), please post the idea on the mailing
list (http://groups.google.com/group/python-north-west) or mail
g.lacava at gmail.com.

Subscribe to the Python North-West Google Calendar (linked at
