I talked to Xenophon Christolou who runs the London IET group about the
idea of putting on some Python events. He was very supportive.<br>
<br>
I was expecting we'd have to plan months ahead, but we're in luck - if
WE Can act fast enough! A speaker cancelled for the 11th April. For
this one, we'd need to put on an event of reasonably general appeal.
But remember, this is THE learned society for engineering, so our
audience is technically literate. If we rough out more than one
proposal, we can always go for the others later. <br>
<br>
The event proposals are pretty much what you'd see posted on the IET
web-site:<br>

<br>
How do we want to proceed? Apart from <u>quickly</u> to seize the
moment?<br>
<br>
A suggestion - anyone prepared to give a presentation should put
together a few words in more or less the same format as the IEE events
calendar over the course of this week. We can let Xenophon decide which
might have the widest appeal for the 11th, or vote on it ourselves, up
to you. And the rest can come later, planned and publicised in more
leisure.<br>
