Python Adelaide RESCHEDULED: Now on Wednesday 31 May, 7pm
by Adam Brenecki May 22, 2017

May 22, 2017

Hi everyone, We found out yesterday that Flinders have double-booked us and that all of their Victoria Square building is booked out. After scrambling to try to find an alternate venue without success, we've had to reschedule the May session for *Wednesday 31st May, 7pm sharp (doors at 6:30)*. As part of that process, *we've found a new venue* that we think would be perfect for Python Adelaide. It's still city central, still wheelchair accessible, it has WiFi for everyone (not just those with Eduroam logins), and we can book it directly rather than having to go through Flinders faculty (although Romana has been super helpful, and the double booking is in no way her fault!) We haven't finalised that yet, so we'll announce it properly on this list and everywhere else when we do. But we're definitely going to be meeting somewhere in the city on the 31st, whether it's the new venue, Flinders, or our 3rd fallback. Apologies for the inconvenience, and see you on the 31st! Adam

Python Adelaide in May: Natural Language Toolkit + Packaging, plus a Slack group!
by Adam Brenecki May 17, 2017

May 17, 2017

Hi everyone! (And hi LinuxSA too; I'm cross-posting this to you as requested on Tuesday night.) Python Adelaide's May session is on next Wednesday evening, with talks starting at 7pm. Romana Challans will be presenting her talk on *Natural Language Toolkit*, as well as yours truly presenting *put snek in bag plz: A whirlwind tour of packaging in Python*. We'll be at Flinders University's city campus at 182 Victoria Square again; enter at the Victoria Square side of the building, and if the door is locked phone security at the number posted on the door, tell them you're here for Python Adelaide and they'll come and let you in. As with last month, please bring $10 to chip in if you'd like to have pizza afterwards, and let us know on the night if you have any dietary requirements. *We've also got a Slack group!* You can sign up for that here: https://pythonadelaide.slack.com/shared_invite/MTgzMjg2MjI1MTIwLTE0OTQ5MDI0… . Once you've signed up, if you want to use an IRC or XMPP client instead of the Slack apps you can set that up here: https://pythonadelaide.slack.com/account/gateways See you next week, Adam
