Hi Kausikram,
I am sorry that I am not able to do anything about this. There are
many factors involved, and for now I am able to schedule this only on
a Sunday.

In the future, we will probably have meetings over Slack, may be then I
can schedule this on a Friday evening.

I think Shrayas already covered Hylang in a lightning talk a couple of
months ago.

It'll still be good to have a more detailed look in a longer version.

Hi Shakthi,
Thanks for proposing a talk. Unfortunately, the available slots have
already been taken, though we are yet to get the complete talk details.
If the speakers back out, we can accommodate your talk for this
meetup, else we can take this up in the next month's meetup.

Regards,
Vijay

No problem. I am not sure what Shrayas had covered earlier on "Hy" in
his lightning talk. My proposed session will be for 20m though.

Thanks!

I just gave a quick intro to lisps and compared Hylang and Python. You

Hi Krithika,

Are you going to be talking about deploying a simple application on
GAE as well? That would be nice.

Also, A small request would be to continue to reply within the email
chain itself and not send a new email. We have listed some mailing
list guidelines on our website[1]. Please do go through that.

Sounds good. I would suggest that you spice up the talk by adding a 
personal dimension to it:

   1. An application that you built using Google App Engine.
   2. Or difficulties you faced while learning / using Google App Engine.
   3. Or gotchas that you want new people to watch out for.

Vijay

Message-ID: <CANgAyd5j5CNfUSNnevWgLFJb8fombwoPpyr5TczUjpfhon4Z6A@mail.gmail.com>

Hi Everyone ,

Title: July Meet Minutes
Date: 2015-08-13 04:36

Yet another chennaipy meetup with huge audience from different
background.  This time RSVP hit was 128. Good too see lot of people
came.  Vijay started with Introduction about the meetup. Vijay this
time used slides for meetup agenda.  Vijay explained clearly that
meetup won't teach python but it gives pointers to various topic in
python and how they used.  So he insisted everyone to note down what
they don't understand in a talk and Google it to learn that.

## Automating testing using selenium

As usual vengats favorite topic automating software's using python.
He gave a talk on how they used selenium to upload Interview test
exercise to cloud coder.  He faced a problem that cloud coder has no
element ID to locate elements. He solved it using xpath.

## Data Science 101

Gaurav gave a talk on How pandas numpy and scylearn is used in data
science. He analyzed various data based on Titanic disaster data.  If
i am right he uploaded the code to [kaggle](http://www.kaggle.com) to
know how much accurate his prediction.

## Building Git From Scratch

Vijaykumar built a tiny git and showed us how git works.  In fact the
talk gave a broad view of how version control system works.  He
incrementally explained the implementation of tiny git He changed the
actual git command to tig (the reverse of it :-)) He stopped the talk
at version 2 of tiny-git and left it to audience to read themselves.
His git repository for tiny git [Tiny
GIT](https://github.com/bravegnu/tiny-git)

## The beauty that is PostgreSQL - Part 1

Shrayas and Karthick gave a combined presentation on PostgresSQL.

First Karthick gave his presentation on how rows are inserted in to
PostgresSQL DB. He explained python code snippets for PostgressSQL
queries.

Next Shrayas explained Why we should use PostgreSQL.  The interesting
thing is how he is developing such a wonderful presentation. I was
amazed to see the templates he used for his presentation.  He
explained the simply city and speed of postgreSQL DB.  He compared it
with traditional database like MySQL.

Regards
Rengaraj

I would like to first congratulate Shrinidhi Kulkarni and Krithika
Vembu for coming forward to give a talk at the August meet-up. It does
take a lot of courage to talk before an unfamiliar audience.

My presentation has been uploaded at:

  https://github.com/shakthimaan/paho-python-client-for-mqtt

GitHub does a good job of rendering the Org-mode file, even if you
don't use Emacs and Org-mode:

  https://github.com/shakthimaan/paho-python-client-for-mqtt/blob/master/paho-python.org

During the break, I had suggested a book to use for getting started
with Python. It is called "Python for you and me", available online
at:

  http://pymbook.readthedocs.org/en/latest/

Thanks for the opportunity to speak at the meetup.

Regards,

SK

P.S.: In future, if you can provide a bell at the 15 minute mark, it
will be helpful.

Subject: [Chennaipy] August meetup - Minutes
Message-ID: <CAFQniccej5gapGd_jyoXOfxrhXXGTtWt6DeFL9z4e65WfNWoYA@mail.gmail.com>

The August edition of the ChennaiPy meetup had around 103 members RSVP for
participation in the Meetup page. Vijaykumar kickstarted the proceedings by
welcoming everyone and outlining the agenda for the evening.

*Introduction to GeoJson and GeoDjango*

Shrinidhi Kulkarni started his talk by providing an outline of how maps are
organized and the three major components that make up any Geo application -
a Map provider, a JS library and a Geo-aware database. He went onto
demonstrate various features of the Leaflet JS library that includes
initializing a map, adding various shapes, tagging, filtering properties,
etc. The server side was written using GeoDjango and he managed to provide
a quick walk through of some key features such as the models.PointField and
the ability to query geo fields. He closed the talk by listing some
practical problems faced in building his project and workarounds for the
same. Though the talk ran over the allotted time, it was well received by
the audience judging by the follow-up discussions during the break.


*Paho Python client for MQQT*

The next talk was by Shakthi Kannan, a Free Software enthusiast and a
well-known face in the Chennai opensource space. Though the talk was
originally scheduled for the next edition of the meetup, a last minute
reorg helped the team to sneak in this talk in the current edition itself
(to everyone's delight, if I may add!). Even though Shakthi started with
requesting everyone to read the MQQT protocol docs for the details, he
provided a good overview of the protocol and its high-level architecture
thus providing a good background that made the rest of his talk easier to
follow. He went onto explain the steps involved in installing and testing
an open-source MQQT broker - Mosquitto. Finally the same tests were
demonstrated using the Paho python client. He closed his talk with lot of
references for further reading.


The tea break, with refreshments sponsored by Zilogic Systems, was abuzz
with lot of small groups busy in spontaneous discussions.


*Introduction to Google App Engine*

Krithika Vembu, inspired from the previous meetups, gave her first-ever
talk in the meetup. She gave an overview of Cloud-based architecture, its
advantages and the distinguishing aspects of a specific provider - the
Google App Engine. Though she was apologetic about not having live demos,
her enthusiasm to participate in the community and coming forward to speak
in front of an audience was applauded by everyone. Here is to more talks
from her in the future!


*Towards probabilistic programming in Python*

This talk by Prof. Ronojoy Adhikari introduced everyone to a new way of
dealing with the complexity of implementing large scale inference engines
by making use of first-class abstractions about the randomness. There was a
live demo of Lea, a blackbox inference engine, showcasing ways in which the
randomness was modeled in popular problems such as throwing a dice,
flipping a coin, etc. (The program could have done a better job of
predicting rains in Chennai though, as it was raining on the morning of the
meetup! :) ) One came away with lot of motivation to explore the area
further.


Vijaykumar concluded the meeting with announcements on the preparations for
the PyCon Chennai conference and by thanking the participants, speakers,
volunteers, IMSc and the sponsors. Overall an evening well spent!


Thanks,
Ananth

Subject: [Chennaipy] 700 Members on Meetup
Message-ID: <55E46D37.1070104@zilogic.com>

Hi Everyone,
We have touched the 700 members mark on meetup. The 700th user is 
Richard http://www.meetup.com/Chennaipy/members/184718092/ Many people 
who have joined us, generally cite, that they were referred to Chennaipy 
by a colleague or a friend. I would like to take this moment to thank 
all those anonymous people who have helped spread the word and have 
contributed to the growth of Chennaipy.

BTW, while size of the group is important, I guess it is secondary to 
other growth indicators. And I should say that we have really grown in 
terms of our volunteer base, the maturity of our meetups, how we 
organize ourselves and the diversity of the topics that we discuss. We 
deserve a pat on the back! Hope we will continue to grow and become 
better in the days to come.

Regards,
Vijay
