Maybe you should not have mentioned it and you might have gone for free! (just kidding) I paid by card and it was done automatically, so it seems cheque cashing is a bit slow, sorry about that, this is the first time we have done this, and we all volunteers and only a few of us are authorised to deal with our bank account at the moment as it takes a little while to get everyone identified with the bank, etc. Your cheque will move from the secretary to the treasurer so I will talk to them to see where it is now and I will email you off-list. If you registered then you are in the database and have a place at the conference and the dinner, so do not worry about that. > Has anyone else registered for PyCon UK in Birmingham in September? I have, and dozens of other people have taken up the early bird discounts. Booking is still open at http://pyconuk.org/booking.html For those of us without who are paying personally, rather than out of employer's budgets, then you certainly do not want to pay the unsubsidised final door price. The price is all inclusive, including the conference dinner at one of Birmingham's poshest hotels. If you have problems then just let us know, you can email help at pyconuk.org which goes to all the volunteers or you can email me or any of the volunteers directly if you prefer.

We have developed proof of concept code and are happy to now move forward to a beta version of our system. I cant say too much but we will be using kademlia via khashmir / kenosis or perhaps even jxta (python bindings required but project started). I can't say too much as we have many patents processing at the moment, I don't want a patent argument here guys - we have done this for extremely good reasons and the beneficiaries of these patents are all of us (by that I mean mankind - this product would get swallowed up and killed / changed by a couple of not so good corporates). The position is preferably based in Troon, which is not so bad - one of the nicest wee towns in Scotland I would say. Remote working is a possibility but with regular contact (all dev so far done in Czech) We use as I said p2p technologies and maintain the code base for cross platform. We also require some wxpython, knowledge of windows / os/x, darwin and posix login screens and replacing / extending these along with robust installer packages (which should be simple but in fact is not as straight forward as you would think). We use agile development techniques and cmap server / xplanner to develop ideas and code them. Unittests and perftests or similar, no overtime, pair programming where possible (impacting on remote working :-( but hey). The team is small but the opportunity is immense. Company has 43 investors and is in process of meeting with more MSP's including first minister, finance minister and minister for enterprise - it's very possibly something very god for the country we are hoping to achieve and this is borne out by the involvements we have - Vint Cerf is aware of us and we will be speaking to him near launch. Company run by mechanical engineer, Dr. of Chemistry, Aircraft Engineer / Design manager, Electronic / computer science guy (who loves algorithms) and possibly a nuclear physicist (pending) with another 6 in development roles. So creativity and innovation are important to the organisation.
