Tomorrow's Python Adelaide: now with lightning talks!
Hi everyone, Unfortunately, Romana is quite unwell and won't be able to present her talk on NLTK tomorrow; instead she'll be presenting it next month. As a result, we'll have Matt Magin presenting on *Django Channels*, followed by *lightning talks, plus an open discussion* on where Python Adelaide should go: what kinds of talks, other activities, etc. If you're not familiar with lightning talks, here are the rules: - Talks run for up to *five minutes* - *Five minutes* is the maximum talk length - After *five minutes*, you have to stop talking That's it. Any topic you like; it doesn't even need to be directly Python-related. If you can't think of a topic there's a bunch of ideas on our website here: http://pythonadelai.de/pages/speaking.html See you tomorrow, Adam PS: If you're new to speaking, lightning talks are a really good way to get your feet wet! PPS: Remember, the PyCon Australia Call for Proposals is open now, and closes May 7th! If you're thinking of speaking at PyCon AU, a short lightning talk is a great way to test out a topic, and a full-length talk at a future Python Adelaide meetup is a great way to test your material before you take it to the big smoke in Melbourne!
Still waiting for my approval on meetup, so RSVPing here. On 25/04/17 14:17, Adam Brenecki wrote:

Thanks Daryl, We've reached our member limit on meetup.com on the Basic tier and it's a USD$20/month fee to go to unlimited. I'm planning on upgrading it today for the next month but looking for another source of funding like a Linux Australia grant on an ongoing basis, because that's a fair whack out of pocket. Look forward to seeing you tonight! Cheers, Matt @AzMoo On Tue, Apr 25, 2017 at 9:34 PM Daryl Tester < dt-pythonau@handcraftedcomputers.com.au> wrote:
