Hi everyone,

Two weeks to the next MPUG meeting, and we're one talk short. Anyone up for
speaking? Particularly anyone who had a Pycon talk that they haven't
already presented as a rehearsal?

Cheers,

Javier

Hi all,

Thanks for doing this roundup, Javier!

I'd like to volunteer to give this talk:

- "Towards solving the Python 2/3 split with the `past` package"

I'll explain how I've discovered that backwards compatibility is more important than forwards compatibility and show you how it's possible to run Python 2.x code under Python 3.x with the help of a custom codec.

Cheers,
    Ed

Hi everyone,

I've got a short talk 5-10 minute talk coming out of my frustrations putting slides together for pycon on producing better slides from ipython notebooks. Aiming to touch on nbconvert, jinja2, reveal.js and mistune.

Hi, Andrew,

The What's New talk is just a placeholder/filler. I have some 
interesting content (two book reviews), but that can wait until October.

I'll write you up as the first short talk.

Cheers,

J

Sure, November? Anything wrong with October?

Either way, yes, if it's a full length talk, better to start filling in 
the pipeline.

Thanks a lot!

I've written you up for October.

Also, November 2 is smack in the middle of the Melbourne Cup Weekend. 
Anyone for or against moving the MPUG session back one week?

Message-ID: <1440576662.4103323.366322281.44A13478@webmail.messagingengine.com>

Hi everyone.

We are looking for a couple of developers to assist us with some project
work at Planet Innovation.

Position 1: A mix of web and Python development; with the front end
being Ionic apps deployed to both iOS and Android, AngularJS and
HTML/CSS. The back end is Python (specifically web2py) and BDD (such as
Cucumber, or for pythonistas, Lettuce).

Position 2: A mix of C#/.Net and Python, for maintenance work on, and
new features added to, tools for supporting the development and
manufacture of an embedded medical device. Apart from Python, wou will
need C#-based Windows GUI development experience. Experience in imaging
processing would be excellent.

Duration: At this stage, both positions are three month contracts, which
could be extended.

Rates would be primarily determined by your levels of expertise and
experience.

If you are not familiar with Planet Innovation, we are a product
development company, based in Box Hill. We have over a hundred staff,
with a mix of engineering, science, commercialisation and manufacturing
expertise:

    http://planetinnovation.com.au/

For more information, please contact our software manager, Adrian
Higgins (who many of you already know from MPUG); e:
adrian.higgins at planetinnovation.com.au, or myself.

Regards,
Graeme

 Selenium Page Adapter, from past import Python2/3 Compatibility
Message-ID: <CAKADsbdbbx7K1m0oiMHMMFNqrdNNc=ZZiQjvVc_5sRLqLhyXAQ@mail.gmail.com>

This coming Monday, 7 August, we'll hold our next meeting of the
Melbourne Python Users Group!

Time: 6PM
Venue: Inspire 9: Level 1, 41 Stewart Street, Richmond. 50m from
Richmond Train Station.

Program:

15 minute talk:

// Andrew Walker - Better ways to make slides from ipython notebooks with
Nbconvert, jinja2, reveal.js, mistune and some frustration.

25 minute talks:

// Tyson Clugg - Selenium Page Adapter:
https://github.com/tysonclugg/selenium-page-adapter

// Ed Schofield - Towards solving the Python 2/3 split with the past
package: when backward compatibility is more important than forward
compatibility, and how Python 3.x can run Python 2.x code automatically

::

As usual, we'll order pizza, with a $10 contribution required. Drinks
are BYO, but you're invited to bring a six-pack to share if you want!

If you'd like to give the What's New in Python talk in a future
session, you have a cool project you want to show, or you want to give
a short presentation on a library you've been using lately, please
just come forward during the meeting.
