Anthony From darius at obsidian.com.au Wed Aug 3 02:59:49 2005 From: darius at obsidian.com.au (KevinL) Date: Wed, 03 Aug 2005 10:59:49 +1000 Subject: [melbourne-pug] [Mgt] hiring Message-ID: <42F01705.3010003@obsidian.com.au> Python coder required - Coburg, Melbourne; Full-time: Obsidian Consulting Group is looking for a new python coder to join the company. Your job would entail python and zope work on several projects the company has underway currently. This is a full-time position, and would suit someone who has an understanding of coding in OO languages (python/java) and is eager to learn more. Experience with systems administration and/or network administration looked upon favourably, but not required. An understanding of XHTML would also be advantageous, but not required. Obsidian offers a casual work environment, with a good team of coders to work alongside. The work ranges from support for existing Zope products through to new development. We're looking for someone who is enthusiastic about what they do, able to work well with the team we have in place, and keen to learn more. Obsidian primarily builds web-based applications, so work would center around code to support database-driven web-based systems. Obsidian is based in Coburg, Melbourne, and the vacancy is for a full-time employee. Please address responses to "jobs at obsidian.com.au" (and please, text, pdf, or OOo only).

All of the details are up on the wiki: There are two talks scheduled for this week - Richard will be giving a talk on PyGame, and Bruce will be talking about test driven development with Python - both excellent topics. We don't yet have someone scheduled for September, so if you want to give a talk (or lightning talk, or demo, or ...) feel free to sing out or put your name up on the wiki. There also hasn't been much discussion of 'sub-projects', so perhaps the wiki might be a good place to put up a 'CV' so that like minded folks can find each other. I'd definitely be interested in finding other people who will be competing/participating in Richard's PyWeek competition .

For those of you who don't know it, the rules are very simple: - Start with a number of piles of things (e.g. matches) - Two players alternate taking one or more matches from a single pile. - The player to take the last match wins. I hope to see you there. Bruce ____________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

I'm afraid work has gone insane so I'm not going to be able to do the presentation, or turn up. Sorry for the short notice. Was looking forward to the meeting too.
