by Michael Foord Aug. 7, 2008

Aug. 7, 2008

Hello all, PyCon UK starts with a tutorial day, when you have the opportunity to attend two half day tutorials for only £30. We have some great tutorials lined up: http://pyconuk.org/timetable.html Christian Muirhead, Menno Smits and myself will be holding an IronPython tutorial in the morning session. I've put up a page on the PyCon UK wiki showing: * The topics we intend to cover * The pre-requisites (bring a laptop - you will be coding!) http://www.pyconuk.org/community/IronPythonTutorial There is also a space for you to request additional topics if there is anything you particularly want us to cover. If you are intending to come to the tutorial there is also space on the page for you to put your name. If you do come, please check the pre-requisites again as we are still deciding (for example) what databases we will be able to support. (It is likely that we will support MySQL, SQL Server and Postgres and we may also support sqlite.)
