<div>people who are just starting to use Python, as well as experienced</div><div>Python programmers. Don't be intimidated about coming to a meeting.</div><div><br></div><div>Note that ChiPy is not a formal organization. We collect no dues,</div>
<div>elect no officers, and keep no roster. Signing up for the mailing list</div><div>carries no obligation. Nor does showing up at the meetings. Nor, at</div><div>least so far, does anything else we have done, although we always</div>
<div>appreciate it when our presenters show up. (They usually do!)</div><div><br></div><div><a href="http://chipy.org">http://chipy.org</a></div><div>_______________________________________________</div><div>Chicago mailing list</div>
