From our google group:

I don't know why February being short surprises me, you'd have thought I'd have learnt by now, but apologies for the late notice anyway.

The next meeting will be Tuesday 3rd March 2015, 7.30pm at RealVNC (http://goo.gl/maps/ktqpS). We normally stop about 9.30pm, and go on to the pub.

Meetings after that will be:

	? Tuesday 7th April (the day after Easter Monday, as it happens)
	? Tuesday 5th May
	? Tuesday 2nd June

Message-ID: <CACFDE8Zmotn-vn4O=kizA6RHeQex-cwH824B2-HZgzaxDt5w+g@mail.gmail.com>

Hi

It's been pointed out that google searching for pycon uk takes you to a
site that talks about 2014.

This is a bit confusing, as it states early bird tickets are available from
1st March

Is anyone able to change this? Or remove the booking info?

Any updates on '15?

Thanks

Steve

Hi Steve, hi everyone,

There'll be an announcement on this list soon!  But the important details:
the conference will again be in Coventry, and will run from 18th-21st
September.

Cheers,

Peter.

 early bird tickets available, and thanks to our Launch Sponsors

Hi All!

On behalf of the whole team I thought I would post this announcement to the
UK mailing list.

We are pleased to announce the launch of the all new EuroPython 2015
website.

Over the last few weeks, we have been very busy setting up the
infrastructure, talking to sponsors, and the site prepared for the launch.
So here it is:

               *** https://ep2015.europython.eu/ ***


Many thanks go to our launch sponsors who have signed up early to give
us that extra boost in motivation to get the conference and it?s
website ramped up in only 6 weeks:

Our Launch Sponsors are:
------------------------

 * Diputaci?n Foral de Bizkaia
 * Google
 * Bilbao Ekintza
 * UPV/EHU
 * SkyAtlas
 * Blue Yonder
 * Continuum Analytics
 * PythonAnywhere
 * ScrapingHub
 * 1000mercis
 * 2nd quadrant
 * Yelp
 * CodeSyntax
 * Asmatu
 * Hotel Ercilla
 * Neurita
 * Riverbank

Early-bird Ticket Sales
-----------------------

Early bird tickets are available. We only have 350 early-bird tickets
available and experience shows that they will be sold out fast.

PS: We?d like to thank our friends at Python Italia for making the
EuroPython website code used for 2011-2013 available for us to use.

Enjoy!

Hi,

John's funeral will take place at 1pm on 17th March at the Robin Hood
Crematorium, Solihull, B90 3NL. Everyone will be welcome and the wake
will be at a local hostelry (details tbc).

If you would like to make a charitable donation in memory of John (all
proceeds to be donated to the Marie Curie Hospice in Solihull) then
please transfer money to the following account held by the PyconUK
Society:

    Bank Name: The Co-operative Bank plc.
    Account Name: PyconUK
    Sort Code: 08-92-99
    Account Number: 65704590
    IBAN: GB39CPBK08929965704590

All the details and any updates can be found at the following wiki page:

http://pyconuk.net/InMemoriam

(Since John ran the wiki and configured the surge control it is sadly
appropriate that you may get an HTTP 429 "Too Many Requests" response
or an HTTP 504 "Gateway Timeout". John won't be there to give the
PyconUK MoinMoin a kick.)

Rest in peace, John. We have lost a mentor, leader and friend.

Message-ID: <CACFDE8ZQ6t60CmSwD7fmFRTuR5VL6Tdc22KMFU0k=_ghSQcCUQ@mail.gmail.com>

Hi All

A few of us are setting up a community run, free to use (and advert free)
Jobs board (similar in nature to jobs.python.org)

It's designed to be simple to post to (if you're into that sort of thing,
we use Github pull requests), easy to moderate, and strictly no agencies.
The site will be search-engine indexable, and an easy place for people to
find opportunities.

At the moment we've got things up and running, but need some job specs to
fill up the site, and make things interesting.

If you're currently hiring (directly, no agencies please), or know anyone
who is, then please, during this pre-launch period, email me the details *off
list*, and I'll add your ad to the board.

Required details are:
* A contact name, email & optional phone number (of someone who works at
the company)
* The name of the company that is offering the job
* A Link/URL (optional)
* The type of contract: temp/perm/contract/remote
* Location
The job description/text (ideally in markdown format, if not, I can do some
simple reformatting)

The site link and details will be posted once we've got more content to show

Thanks

Steve Stagg

Next Tuesday is John's funeral. It's also the date of the Birmingham Linux
user group meeting. We are planning to celebrate John's life by eating at
his favourite balti restaurant in Birmingham, Shababs 163-165 Ladypool
Road, Birmingham, West Midlands B12 8LQ.

Any of the python community who would like to join us would be welcome.
Please let me know on this mailing list if you will be coming. I'll book a
table.

Hi,


Just thought it worth mentioning this:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-31834927

>From the article:

The BBC will be giving away mini-computers to 11-year-olds across the
country as part of its push to make the UK more digital.

One million Micro Bits - a stripped-down computer similar to a Raspberry Pi
- will be given to all pupils starting secondary school in the autumn term.

The BBC is also launching a season of coding-based programmes and
activities.
Just thought it worth mentioning that while that pictures the prototype, it
uses an awful lot of python in the software stack.

:-)

It's also worth mentioning (now that the NDA has timed out and the
project is announced) that the PSF is involved and we hope that there
will be several Python & MicroBit related things developers (and
teachers) can get involved in.

We also hope to have the MicroBit as part of the education track at
PyconUK.

More details to follow soon.

Woah. That sounds really interesting. I'm a Python programmer and Code 
Club volunteer, with a side interest in physical computing. The MicroBit 
looks like a great intersection of all three.

Do you know of any way I could get my hands on one, or otherwise get 
involved in the beta program?

Thanks,

-Tristan.

Tristan,

Code Club are already involved. I guess you could ask up the CodeClub
chain of command (as it were)..?

I only have a prototype because I attended a workshop last month for
partners (the PSF is a partner and I'm the PSF point of contact).

Getting hold of MicroBits is at the top of my ToDo list with this
project. I'll let you know how I get on.

This could be an interesting subject for one of the next Python Dojo,
what do you think about?
Something similar to the RaspberryPi theme we did last month.

Cheers.

Since it's in photos, it's safe to say that the current _prototype product_
uses an Atmel 32U4, which doesn't have anywhere enough memory to run
micropython. (So in order to run python on it via the gcc-avr tool chain,
you can probably infer a number of things I had to do, involving ply)

The actual final device wil be using a different chip, so we'll see on that
front.

The micropython device is cool though :-)

As I get the go ahead to release stuff, I will do so. Meanwhile, the PSF
are an official partner, so I'll be supporting Nick.

Michael,

Many congratulations getting this project off the ground with Python support. That's amazing news. Can't wait to see the details fleshed out.

Hey hey,

So the force of nature that is Carrie Anne (cc'd) and her awesome
buddies are at it again!

If you're a developer, live in or around London and want to help
teachers then you should totally attend "Hack the Curriculum" (alas, I
can't make it due to musical engagements).

Sign up here:

https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/hack-the-curriculum-and-include-birthday-celebration-tickets-15351043384

I went to the first one and it's a wonderful event where developers
can help make a real difference to what's happening in our schools.

It'd be great if the UK Python community got involved - we have so
much to offer. Just being able to take 1/2 hour to explain some
programming related thing to a teacher who is full of questions would
be a great result, boost their confidence and affect the lives of the
100s of kids they see every week.

Also, it'll be A LOT OF FUN FOR YOU. You'll come away buzzing with
ideas - teachers (because that's what their job is) are good at
inspiring, supporting and promoting that feeling of "hey, I can do this".

All the best,

N.

CrowdScores is a unique platform for crowdsourcing live football data:

Hi,

we are planning a hackathon on robotics (mainly involving python .... but I
think that doors will be open to all robot hackers :) ) during next
europython 2015 in Bilbao ... Is someone interested in ?

Hi,

A quick FYI.

The source code for the 2015 PyconUK website is now on GitHub (and
will be delivered via GitHub pages once DNS has been switched). There
is still much work to be done!

You can find it here:

https://github.com/PyconUK/pyconuk.github.io

Pull requests and bug reports most welcome!

Best wishes,

Nicholas.

I have never seen sites built, managed and hosted this way before.  It's
brilliant!  But where's the Python going to go? ;-)

I have to teach a bunch of schoolkids some basic web design this Easter
(front end only).  We started off with concepts of version control, and I
was going to have to bamboozle them with FTP/SCP onto low end hosting
sites.   This totally removes the need and will force them to use version
control properly from day one.  The idea that merging into a master branch
IS deployment is wonderful.

Hi,

The next "normal day" for the London Dojo is the Thursday before Friday
Easter (2nd April).

Will it be on that day or the week after?

Thank you!

PS: I couldn't go in March and I'm having withdrawal syndrome.

Hi Carles and everyone,

seeing as the first Thursday in April is right up against the Easter long
weekend, it makes sense to pencil the next London dojo for Thursday 9th
April.

Look out for the ticket details around a week before that.

Cheers,
Tom

From our google group:


The next meeting will be Tuesday 7th April, 2015, 7.30pm at RealVNC (http://goo.gl/maps/ktqpS). We normally stop about 9.30pm, and go on to the pub.

I'm not 100% sure yet if I'll be able to make it, as I shall be on holiday - but probably still around. There may be some talking about Python's mock library, and its use, and possibly some of the more useful things that can be used with that (I think Russell suggested this). If I'm there I'll try to have some ideas about small examples we can play with.

Meetings after that will be:

	? Tuesday 5th May
	? Tuesday 2nd June
	? Tuesday 7th July

I, for one, am curious how long it takes, how much it costs, where they 
leave from. Others must also be curious. Are you motivated by cost, 
adventure, or something else?

20-hour luxury floating palace <http://www.brittany-ferries.co.uk/fleet/cruise-ferries/pont-aven> to Santander with first rate Caf? du Posh on board <http://www.brittany-ferries.co.uk/fleet/cruise-ferries/pont-aven/onboard-dining-and-bars> for your meals.

I have a discount card for Brittany Ferries for the luxury floating palace.

Bike ride to Bilbao - 100km; the easy way, or (better) over the mountains and maybe stopping overnight or even for a few nights at <http://abrazohouse.org>. (I've done this several times. Huge fun.)

Sadly the school holidays mean that the most convenient sailings out are fully booked, so it would mean leaving Sunday 12th or Tuesday 14th. But, there's a place to stay in Bilbao too until the start of the conference.

Cost: ?291 return inc. cabin, per person.

Daniele

Unfortunately, all booked, except for dates that aren't any use! Otherwise that would be pretty good for people who don't want to cycle over a mountain.

It's possible to have a rough crossing, but even in the Bay of Biscay it's rarely that bad.

I've done the return journey once or twice a year since 2008 and always enjoyed it.

In July last year I saw a whale the size of a whale.

Did you know that if you take the UK, and you remove all of Scotland,

Did you know that if you take the UK, and you remove all of Scotland, Northern Ireland, and England, you get left with an area the size of Wales?

That's pretty big, for a whale.

Hi,

The RaspberryPi Education team (i.e. Carrie Anne - cc'd) is having a
problem getting a Python 3 version of smbus to work. The following links
pretty much sum up the problem.

http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-i2c/msg08427.html
http://procrastinative.ninja/2014/07/21/smbus-for-python34-on-raspberry/
http://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=32&t=22348

Put simply, does anyone have the time and knowledge to create a
python3-smbus package for Raspbian using the instructions/details above?
As I can tell, it's a case of following the instructions above to apply
the patch and repackaging it. A good outcome would be a
python3-smbus.deb package. I'm crazy busy at the moment but might try
fixing this next week if you don't manage it first.

You may be asking yourself, "Why should I?" Well, I'm glad you asked: a
*huge* number of children (think several million) and the education team
(around 4) would benefit from this work.

Put simply, you'll be making a huge difference.

Here's hoping you can help.

:-)

Hi Carrie,

Would a solution that involves conda
<http://conda.pydata.org/miniconda.html>, a cross-platform package manager
mostly used in the scientific python community be usable by the team, or
would installing that be a non-starter?
If it would be useful, I can take a crack at it this weekend.

Hi Andrew,

That's an interesting idea. If you aren't already considering it, I'd recommend minoconda3 to keep network traffic and build times down - as you are doubtless aware Anaconda can be pretty heavyweight, whereas miniconda is leaner, using load-on-demand.

I know that the guys at Continuum (principal developers of Anaconda) are supportive of Raspberry Pi (see for example http://continuum.io/blog/raspberry), but cross-compilation on a reasonably powerful machine (or at least a Raspberry Pi 2) would make the task more manageable.

Of course this brain dump comes to you without benefit of knowing your plans in detail. Sorry if it's all blindingly obvious.

Why not post as well to the much more widely-read python-list?

Hi Steve,

That is in fact what I was planning on doing. I ought to have disclosed
that I actually work for Continuum Analytics, though I'd probably be trying
this out as just as a personal weekend project.
I'll also be trying this on QEMU on OSx
<https://github.com/psema4/pine/wiki/Installing-QEMU-on-OS-X> since my pi
is still in the mail.

If anyone has any horror stories about trying that to warn me about, please
let me know.

Happy Friday Python People! (yes, you're happy, because it's Friday)

Two questions for you:

1. I'm releasing a library. That I wrote in 2.7. But I want it to make it
    compatible with 2.7+. What's the best approach for this? Especially
    when a bit of code for 2.7 is a SyntaxError in 3+

         raise test_exception, None, test_traceback   #   Syntax error in 3+

         raise test_exception.with_traceback(test_traceback)  #   3+ api

   So, do I write a convoluted bit of code that detects if I'm in 2.7 and
   wraps the exception in something that emulates the 3+ api?
   Do I have two similar modules, and decide which one to import based
   on Python version? Do I have two different versions?
   That seems like an obviously daft idea... but?

    URL for the library is http://keteparaha.aychedee.com/ if anyone wants
to have a look.


2. I'm building a real time bidder (a system that places bids on ad
    impressions in real time) and I was wondering if anyone else on
    this list has built anything similar? Other implementations are VERY
    stateful and I want to take a much more functional approach.
    So, if anyone has built one and will let me buy them a beer and
    chat about it?

(Hopefully) useful links:

http://python3porting.com/noconv.html#handling-exceptions

http://python-future.org/compatible_idioms.html

https://docs.python.org/3/howto/pyporting.html#update-your-code

I'm not sure if they exactly address your case, but hopefully they'll
take you in the right direction.

No horror stories, but I know Phil Elson has been working on bootstrapping
conda on the Pi, he has a repo here: https://binstar.org/RaspberryPi.  Not
sure how finished that is, you'd have to ask him (you can find his email on
the conda mailing list).

Ok, here's a start... I gathered more information, and found an
alternative[0].


Seems i2c-tools needs to make a new release first? That would be the place
to ask first. http://www.lm-sensors.org/browser/i2c-tools/trunk

Then the Debian package can be updated:
    https://packages.debian.org/wheezy/python-smbus

By posting a bug report here, which will alert the maintainers.

https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?pkg=python-smbus;dist=unstable

You can see all the Debian package info here, like the change log, the
debian packaging files, and maintainer email addresses:
    https://packages.qa.debian.org/i/i2c-tools.html

They last made a release on March 8th, so they would seem to be responsive.



Debian packages can be made with patches on top of upstream releases if
needed. Which they have done already in this package.

You need to have a separate .diff file patch for the feature. Which you can
get from here: http://www.lm-sensors.org/changeset/6267/i2c-tools/trunk

See the Debian python packaging guide:
https://wiki.debian.org/Python/Packaging
I'm sure the maintainers would be happy to help someone out if they have
questions.


best,


[0] There's a cffi implementation with python 3 support. That can be pip
installed, so there is no need for a debian package.
https://github.com/bivab/smbus-cffi

ps. what's the benefit of conda (to people, not to the company selling it)
now that there are wheels and devpi? Seems to only divide the python
community and add more confusion now.

Hey hey,

A quick heads up. David Boddie has created a package that solves this
problem (he emailed me about it this morning).

Great to see the community step up like this. There's still lots of ways
you can get involved with RaspberryPi.

:-)
