As an experiment, I'd like to make it a "discussion" meeting, talking in general about testing - we've not done something quite like that, and I think there's enough scope for a full meeting. Of course, as normal, any lightning talks will also be welcome. (For what it's worth, I've been having fun at work writing a Linux kernel module with (userspace) tests in Python) The meetings thereafter will be: :CamPUG: Tuesday 2nd June, pub meeting :EuroPython 2009: in Birmingham, with the main event being Tuesday 30th June through Thursday 2nd July. See http://www.europython.eu/ for more details. :CamPUG: Tuesday 7th July, which will also be a pub meeting (since I'm assuming we'll all still be recovering after EuroPython).

I'm not a professional programmer, but I've done Windows services/Win32/ctypes stuff, DB based apps (Oracle), TCP/IP sockets - one way or another I've looked at most parts of Python. I've moved up (allegedly :-) into a different position now and I thought it would be nice to find an open source project or something similar to work on for fun. Does anyone have any good ideas about where to find something that would suit me (or an idea of a specific project)?
