</span>Hi Masnun, and everybody else.<br>
I will make a larger presentation about me later. But one of the things<br>
I do is answer questions as <a href="mailto:webmaster@python.org">webmaster@python.org</a>. (I have help. There<br>
are a few webmasters.) I am hoping that people on this mailing list also<br>
know about the python wiki.<br>
<br>
In particular I hope they know about<br>
<br>
<a href="https://wiki.python.org/moin/LocalUserGroups" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://wiki.python.org/moin/LocalUserGroups</a><br>
<br>
If you have a local group, please add it here. The wiki is free for<br>
everybody to add to, though due to SPAM we have had to make people<br>
register for a wiki account and now have capchas (which are python<br>
programming questions).<br>
<br>
webmaster often gets asked about 'is there a local group, and<br>
if so where?'. Last winter somebody in Chittagong wanted to know<br>
if there were any groups in Bangladesh, and I had to say ... not<br>
as far as I know. They didn't know about your fb presence, either.<br>
They seemed lonely.<br>
<br>
Next time I will know better.<br>
<br>
But if people kept that page updated, it would work against having<br>
such problems.<br>
<br>
Thank you, and very pleased I am to see you ...<br>
