I was born and lived in Nigeria, until two years ago, before moving to the UK. In 2010, I was part of a team who deployed an election monitoring system for the country written in python/django using SMS technologies based on RapidSMS and other tools. The team have now used same software in other African countries. Having been to my first PyCon at Coventry few weeks ago, I think Python Africa Tour is the closest we've had, and the problem, usually is fewer available experienced Python programmers, to share knowledge and strengthen local capacity. But the good thing is most African countries are either francophone or English speaking, so resource transfer should be smooth.

Daniele From dougal85 at gmail.com Fri Oct 25 11:13:17 2013 From: dougal85 at gmail.com (Dougal Matthews) Date: Fri, 25 Oct 2013 10:13:17 +0100 Subject: [python-uk] [Python Glasgow] Dojo next month 12th November! Message-ID: Hey all, Next month we are running another dojo! Twig are hosting again and will be providing pizza and beer, previous attendees should note that Twig has moved to the building next door, so the new address is: 4th Floor 14 North Claremont Street G3 7LE Glasgow The dojo's are usually really well attended so make sure to get your ticket now at: http://pythonglasgow-dojo-11-2013.eventbrite.co.uk/ Twig is look for a Python/Django developer to join them on a contract basis, most likely 3 months to start. We're developing in Django 1.6 (and hoping it hits a production release before we do!) on the server-side and HTML5 with Bootstrap 3 and Backbone on the client. You'll be joining our team in the Glasgow office, working on the next major release of www.twig-world.com For those of you that don't know, a dojo is a fun coding event where we split into teams and hack on a problem for about 90 minutes. The focus is on getting something working and making progress rather than on code quality, so feel free to take on the problem any way you wish! Then at the end we will share what we found. It's great fun and good for learning too. All levels of Python are welcome as you can contribute to your team with ideas and discussion. Last time we tried to build applications to calculate the degrees of separation between two people, many teams got IMDB data and tried to match two actors together from films they had been in. We will be following the format of the London Python Dojo - to read more about what to expect look here: http://ntoll.org/article/how-to-run-an-awesome-code-dojo The dojo's are usually really well attended so make sure to get your ticket now at: http://pythonglasgow-dojo-11-2013.eventbrite.co.uk/ See you all there!
