London Python Meetup, Tuesday May the 6th
by Simon Brunning April 15, 2008

April 15, 2008

It's doubly good time for a Python meet-up. Firstly, Django's Jacob Kaplan-Moss is in town. If I can coax him into speaking, I will. Secondly, what with the release of the Google App Engine, I expect a big increase in interest in Python in general.

Python Developers Wanted
by Rakesh Thakrar April 1, 2008

April 1, 2008

For those that are interested I am looking for a number of PYTHON developers for London. Graduates to Architects required (All levels considered) Salary £20-£65k We are currently seeking a number of Software Engineers to work in a team of highly able programmers, using technologies such as Python and Linux, and modern Agile development processes encompassing pair programming, unittests, and working with stories. To qualify we expect all members of the software team to have the following:- A keen analytical mind, with a sound ability to judge when to focus on the details and when to think laterally. Good interpersonal skills. This means being able to work continuously with other developers and talk sensibly with non-technical staff. A strong desire to do things right, and not just to get it done. Obviously this needs to be tempered by the need to accept the compromises such as time-constraints that exist within a business. Exposure to Linux/UNIX and other OS's, since people who've only worked in one environment can have fixed, unrealistic ideas. Exposure to object oriented programming in more than one language. So long as there is some breadth, previous experience of Python is almost irrelevant (although a desire to program in Python is essential).
