Hi all,

It's been brought to my attention that there's a Django contract on offer in Melbourne:

"We are looking for a contract Python developer with experience using Django CMS, to work in our Melbourne office. At this point we are unsure the duration, but looking for someone to start within the next two weeks ideally.

Our office is based in Fitzroy, a very cool and creative space."

Contact Tim O'Neill <tim.oneill at reactive.com>

I applied to that one. It really is a cool space, but they weren't paying
enough for me.

They got someone to blow in and implement one of their sites in Django, but
it didn't work out, and now they need someone to do some maintenance.
Python, PHP and XSL would help you here.

(Apologies if you're seeing this on multiple lists)

The LCA2011 Open Programming Miniconf helps bridge the gap between the
low-level developer and the end-user by bringing the topic of tools
and techniques for application development to Linux.conf.au.

We invite 25-minute talks on a wide range of topics, tools and
languages with the aim of bringing together open source developers
with presentations that share techniques, best practices and values
amongst users of all open source programming languages.

If you know something about a topic of interest to the LCA Developer
community, check out our call for presentations at
http://blogs.tucs.org.au/opm/cfp/ and submit a proposal!

OPM2011 is part of Linux.conf.au 2011, being held at the Queensland
University of Technology in Brisbane in January 2011.

Hi all,

I've been a long time subscriber to lwn.net, but as time goes by I'm 
finding that I'm becoming more of a "Python" person and less of a 
"Linux" person.  So I'm after recommendations for a good Python news 
source.  I was getting PyMag (http://www.pythonmagazine.com/) for a 
while, but it seems completely dead now.  :-(

Cheers,

Rasjid.

Planet Python is my favourite, though there are a lot of posts (it is
an aggregation) so it can be hard to keep up with.

Although I am slightly embarassed to admit it, I often get Python news from:

The Python Papers exists as a low-volume publication (pythonpapers.org).
Planet Python is what I use to stay on top of what's happening, and I highly
recommend coming along to the MPUG meetings when they are held.

Cheers,

Python-URL is a good weekly email summary of interesting Python news and
discussions, and has links to a range of other news sources.

I don't know know if there is a nice web interface to subscribing. To
quote the newsletter:

A new magazine is PET (an Argentinian Python mag that now has an English
translation): http://revista.python.org.ar/

As other people have mentioned, Reddit and Planet Python are also often
good sources of news.
