Hi all,
[ sorry for spamming the list, but even though I sent this to all the email addresses I have on file for tutorial attendees, I know I am missing a few, so I hope they see this message. ]
In order to make your experience at the scipy tutorials as smooth as possible, we strongly recommend that you take a little time to install the necessary tools in advance.
For both introductory and advanced tutorials:
http://conference.scipy.org/intro_tutorial http://conference.scipy.org/advanced_tutorials
you will find instructions on what to install and where to download it from. In addition (this is also mentioned on those pages), we encourage you to run according to your tutorial of choice, a little checklist script:
https://cirl.berkeley.edu/fperez/tmp/intro_tut_checklist.py https://cirl.berkeley.edu/fperez/tmp/adv_tut_checklist.py
This will try to spot any problems early, and we'll do our best to help you with them before you arrive to the conference.
Best regards,
Dave Peterson and Fernando Perez.
ps - for those of you who may find fixes for the checklist scripts, the sources are hosted on github:
