Sorry, for pitching in late. I am behind my mails by a huge margin. :)
I did get the gist of the Python Day suggestion.

Last week, I met along with Noufal and Anand C, when we were
discussing how we can get started with PyCon idea.

-1 for Python Day.

* It will dilute things up. I wont personally be interested, doing a
  conference again after a mini-conference.

* But I understand the thought process, for all people get together to
  have a face-to-face meeting, a platform is required. What could be
  best done is, if we are meeting up a large user group meeting, if a
  person really cares enough, should travel. But it is difficult thing
  you see. Otherwise, we will have use IRC, mails as the follow up
  discussions and share the thoughts. To start with, I think that
  folks need to trust that all best interests are taken care.

I think IRC and mail will work out after we get going.. (We did start
it off) and I see that May 3 there is another meetup, I shall come.

+1 for PyCon in September.

* Start small, distribute work, get going.
* I think, we might be having this event in Bangalore this year.
* We will have decide upon a leader to take us to this event. ( It
  works best that way and How do we go about with it?)
* We had a earlier discussions on this previous,  so we will take the
  useful things out of those discussions and move forward.

Thanks,
Senthil

May 3rd at ThoughtWorks then. Shall we say 4 to 6? I think we can keep
the last 30-45 minutes for the PyCon discussion and the remaining for
some random chit chat and one of these presentations
http://wiki.python.org/moin/BangPypers/PresentationTopics

Please feel free to adjust the time as per the majority's convenience.

Like I said, I won't be there since I have to go to my native place
for some personal work but I'll pitch in as soon as I'm back. :-/

Sriram, can you book the venue and send out the details?

Here are my notes which might serve as a decent starting point to keep
the discussion focussed. Let's make this happen. I for one *really*
want to see a PyCon in September as I'm sure all the Pypers here want
to as well. :)

1 PyCon India discussion
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

1.1 Items discussed
====================

1.1.1 Venue
------------
    - Probably at an academic institution.
    - Anand has contacted some folks at IISc. and come up with this
      - It's possible to get the some lecture halls and
        stuff from the college if *one of the profs is there on the
        conference organising committee*.

1.1.2 Format
-------------
    - We are hoping for roughly  14-16 slots among which 7-8 will be
      newbie topics and 7-8 will be advanced.
    - In order to fill slots and make the event richer, we are
      considering open spaces and BOF events.
    - We are also open to lightning talks which can fill gaps and make
      the event interesting.
    - We are planning this to be a one day event scheduled for
      sometime in last September (approx. timeline is there below).
    - We are currently leaning towards not having a keynote
      speaker. If things change, we might consider one later.
    - We are planning to keep a registration fee of Rs. 200 (early
      bird) and Rs. 300 (spot)

1.1.3 Speakers from outside
----------------------------
    - If we *do* get speakers from outside, we will pay for
      accomodation, food and local transport (not for travel).
    - This will cost us roughly 3000 per per person.

1.1.4 Site
-----------
    - We are planning to ask Kenneth if we can reuse the software
      which he has
    - We are planning to get the pycon domain name from the PSF (in.pycon.org)
    - It might be a good idea to ask Kenneth to take over the web
      details completely.

1.1.5 Money matters
--------------------
    - We need an account to hold the funds we gather/collect.
    - Kenneth might be the person who can arrange for us to use an account.

1.1.6 Publicity/sponsorhip
---------------------------
    - We need to leverage personal contacts (companies where we work,
      people we know) to get information about sponsors as well as the
      news to spread through the hacker crowd.

1.1.7 Approx expenses
----------------------
      Item                       Rough cost   Notes
     --------------------------+------------+----------------------------------------
      Venue                           10000   Anand has positive
feedback from IIsc.
      Projectors/Sound systems        10000   Can the college provide
these?
      Food                            10000   Outsourced to a caterer

etc.
      External speakers               24000   8 external speakers

      Total                           74000   Approx. 100,000 (with
safety margin)

Sorry, I went ahead and noted the timing without a larger number of
people giving a +1 for this timing.

If we finalize on a different timing, let me know and I'll change the
booking accordingly.

  I plan to attend this and I have added my name.
 Btw, let us make this exclusive to discussion on Pycon
 and not have any talks - that is my suggestion.

  4-6pm is rather late in the day. Does anyone have objections
  for pushing it up by an hour, i.e 3-5 pm ?

fine with me.
If it just to discuss about PyCon, we can probably meet somewhere in
the middle of the city.
How about some coffee shop in MG Road?

  My experience with open environments is that they dilute
  the discussions. It is difficult to keep the eye away from
  all the dazzle, especially on MG Road ;)

  For this, I prefer a "closeted" place, where we have
 a whiteboard or something to write on. Much more easier
 than trying to write on those paper napkins...

I don't expect to see more than 5 people. 5 people can easily sit on a
table and write in a notebook. I can volunteer to bring notebook and
pen :).

 You seem to have a subversive agenda on MG Road that day.
 Perhaps a date ;) ?

 I am OK with meeting on MG Road or church street.

It takes me about 1 and half to 2 hours to reach ThoughtWorks and it
just takes less than an hour to reach M G Road. Totally it saves 2
hours of my time.

> I will make  it on 3rd Sunday! Let's get talking. Thoughtworks is fine....


I'm out of town for the long weekend, as I suspect several others on this
list are.

This discussion has turned into a design by committee orgy. The only way
this will work is if someone takes charge, makes decisions, and asks the
list for approval and publicity, not suggestions. You're better off
correcting for bad decisions than expecting a crowd to make them in the
first place.

To get this started, I propose a one-day event on Saturday, May 8, at the
Centre for Internet and Society (CIS) on Cunningham Road, Bangalore. CIS has
a conference room that can seat up to 30 around a long table. It's perfect
for discussions. I will ask CIS to confirm the date and to sponsor snacks
and beverages. We will have to pay for our own lunch, which we'll order from
a nearby restaurant (< Rs 100).

I have two agenda items for the day:

1. First half: Discuss Zine as (a) a weblog platform, and (b) model
structure for a framework-independent Python web-app. Have a sprint for
about three hours to add a few new features.

2. Second half: Provide a place for anyone interested in discussing PyCon
India. Since I'm not volunteering to run the event, I have no agenda. I will
continue to work on Zine if no one is interested in PyCon.

Who's up for this? If you want something else done on the day, please just
take charge. I will be responsible for the venue and for discussing Zine.

People interested only in PyCon can join the second half directly.

I volunteer to run the event. I am willing to take the blame if it flops. And 
share the fame if it succeeds.  The only request I have is that in all 
decisions, which will be after a free discussion, I have the final word. If 
this is acceptable, I will be there on May 8/9.

+1. Kenneth, you may find it useful to consider the Barcamp Bangalore
Planners' model for decision making, where we have no final decision making
authority, but one volunteer moderator whose job is to keep everyone in a
closed room doing nothing but the discussion, keeping it firmly on track,
and not letting folks go until a consensus decision has been arrived at. If
you're willing to do this over a mostly authoritarian decision making
process, you have my support.

I will need a day to confirm venue availability on May 9 since Sunil is
travelling at the moment (thanks for pointing out the error, Anand).

I am okay with any place. but I would prefer TW.
Can accommodate more people, if they turn up..

Anand C, as we met at Barista at MG Road last week, why not give a try
to TW this week? If more people turn up, it will be better..

I stay at Frazer town, can pick you on the way, if we can plan it.

Another date again? :)
Well, there are 5 people signed up for for May 3 meeting. So we are
going forward with it.. We can meet up on May 8th, if majority folks
feel the need.

Yes, thats what I meant by 'who will lead us' to PyCon India. We have
Kenneth now, who has volunteered (Cool!) and we might perhaps want few
more discussions before we settle upon our leader.

* One thing, if Pycon India 2009 is happening at bangalore, would our
  leader-for-the-year  be more suited if he is from bangalore? 
* Similar for other cities in the forth coming year.

Thanks,
Senthil

Saturday is May 9th, not May 8th.

+1 for May 9th.

May 9th *is* a little away but if it can draw a few more people, it's
good. I'm for maximising participation. Sine we want the real deal in
September, the faster we can make decisions, the better.

As for venue and time decisions, the usual voting scheme and
discussions are okay.

Taking "charge", I'm perfectly willing although I see the conference
as something which comes about because the community wants it rather
than an individuals ego trip. The only real need for a leader is to
put his foot down at times when things are dragging.

Can someone send out a final Time/Date/Venue/Agenda mail so that
everyone is in sync?

Excellent. I'll take the lead as soon as I'm back (12/May). For this
meeting, if one you guys (Senthil or Ramdas) could cover all the major
items we have to handle to get a conference going and put it up on the
wiki, we'd have officially started and can move ahead.

Noufal, what I'm proposing is a community-centric model. Communities are
great for inputs, but not for decisions. Even in the most successful
community models, there is _always_ a core of (usually self-selected)
coordinators holding things together.

PyCon India needs this leadership, and this leadership needs to appoint
itself. The community can rally around a leader but can't appoint one.

Hope that clarifies.

Yes, Noufal. Stop talking about Community and give us orders, there
are people to obey you and available for your consultation too.

We had a meeting at ThoughtWorks office today and agreed that you will
lead this effort. Shall post the minutes of the meeting separately.

Kiran, it looks like we may not meet again on May 9th for Pycon, but
the PyCon related discussions will happen next on May 17th.


Thanks,
Senthil

not so. As a leader/leaders, you can expect to have both your personal and 
professional life to be put on hold for some time before, during and after the 
conference. This means, if you are employed, your employer has to support you 
and give you time off. If self employed, you have to give yourself time off. And 
please remember, volunteers are volunteers - many of them are unreliable and 
vanish just when needed. At that time you will need to step into the breach. 
The advantage of tying up with an institution - ideally an engineering college 
- is that if the college management is involved, most of the infrastructure 
stuff just happens, which is a huge load of your mind. In this respect, we 
could think of approaching Christ University in Bangalore - the management is 
highly supportive of such ventures and there are some dedicated staff members 
who could do a lot.

further to this, if you analyse the foss/oss conferences that take place every 
year, there are two types:

fsck.in - this is run by experienced event managers who can dedicate 
substantial time and also have bank accounts for fund receipts. Freed.in, run 
by ilugd, which is a registered society with a bank account. But they usually 
tie up with JNU to run their show.

Gnunify at Pune, tied up with Symbiosis which makes it the longest running 
event in the country - in it's 5th or 6th year. Fossconf - this is run by 
ilugc, and held in a different college each year. The college looks after the 
infrastructure and provides 150-200 volunteers and looks after everything. 
This year we had about 10 colleges bidding for the event - and next year's 
event is already allotted.

One difference between Gnunify/freed and fossconf is that that the former 
events are held in elite institutions, so there is practically zero attendance 
from the students of the institutions. Fossconf is usually held in 2nd tier 
institutions, so there is a large student attendance from the host college 
itself.

I do not know what the scene is in Bangalore, but in Chennai alone, there 
would be a big Queue of colleges vying to host Pycon India.

(I am just sharing my experiences here)

Hi,

 We had a meeting to discuss the status of PyCon
India efforts at TW yesterday.

 I have put up the minutes of yesterday's meeting at
http://wiki.python.org/moin/BangPypers/Meeting03May2009 .

We plan to have regular f2f meetings from here on.
IRC can be used for any quick follow ups but the experience
is that actual decisions are made in f2f meetings, not in
anonymous IRC chats.

We will form the committees in the coming weeks. If any of
you want to take part in the conference organization please
make sure you attend the meetings and/or follow ups
discussions in this list.

Regards,

Hi,

I've been sending out the following announcement on a few mailing lists I
know of.  I'd appreciate it *very much* if you could kindly forward this
along to any individuals or to other mailing lists of interest. Many thanks!

regards,
prabhu

Hello,

Project positions are open at IIT Bombay for a new government funded
project on adoption of Free/Open Source Software (FOSS) in Indian
science and engineering education.  Applicants may email their resumes
along with a one page writeup on why they think they are well suited for
the project to:

   admin.foss[at]iitb.ac.in

News, announcements and details regarding the project are available here:

 http://www.aero.iitb.ac.in/~prabhu/Projects/FOSSEducation<http://www.aero.iitb.ac.in/%7Eprabhu/Projects/FOSSEducation>


Overview of the project
-----------------------

The eventual goal is to replace the use of commercial tools in Indian
science and engineering education at the college level.  Towards this we
are working on the following broad themes:

 - Python for scientific computing.
 - Scilab (http://www.scilab.org, http://www.scilab.in).
 - Multimedia authoring tool suited for Indian languages with a LaTeX
  backend.
 - Other projects related to the above.

I will be personally involved with the "Python for scientific computing"
component.  This will broadly involve:
   - NumPy (http://numpy.scipy.org),
   - SciPy (http://www.scipy.org),
   - matplotlib (http://matplotlib.sf.net),
   - Sage (http://www.sagemath.org),
   - Mayavi (http://code.enthought.com/projects/mayavi),
   - ETS (http://code.enthought.com/projects),
   - SymPy (http://code.google.com/p/sympy),
and various other packages of interest.

As part of the project you will have opportunity to work with the core
developers of these major projects.

Requirements
------------

The positions are all for a maximum duration of 3 years.  The initial
appointment will be for a period of 1 year which will be extended based
on performance.

   - Project manager: 1 position
   - Technical writer: 1 position
   - Software Developers/content generators:
       - Python: 4 positions
       - Scilab: 3 positions
       - LaTeX: 2 positions

You will need to stay on campus or commute to IITB.  Accommodation will
be provided if available, otherwise HRA will be provided.

Qualifications
---------------

Project manager:
   - Good knowledge of programming and open source software community
   - People management
   - Communication
   - Organizational skills

Technical writer:
   - Excellent language and communication skills (spoken and written)

   - Willingness to learn

Programmers/content generators:
   - Willingness to learn
   - Good programming skills
   - Passion for FOSS
   - Experience with FOSS
   - Good math and science skills

strong applications with those skills would also be considered.
Experience with Python/Scilab/LaTeX is a plus.  Experience with working
on a FOSS project is a big plus.

Job description
---------------

As part of this project you will work towards creating material for
adoption of the various existing FOSS tools in the science and
engineering curriculum.  This will involve generation of a significant
amount of documentation in the form of tutorials, audio/video
demonstrations, written material, and lectures.  The material will often
go towards augmenting existing courses.  The project will involve
working with several well known packages and improving them both in
terms of documentation and code to add features or fix bugs.

We will be hosting several workshops, sprints and conferences where you
will get to meet the developers of many important packages.

Remuneration
-------------

The pay will be in the range Rs. 10000 to 30000 depending on the
qualifications and experience.  For extra-ordinary people the upper limit is
flexible.  Accommodation will be provided on campus if available.

Why you should apply
--------------------

   - You get paid to improve and write FOSS.
   - You get to do really meaningful work -- your work will influence
     generations of future students all over India and potentially
     elsewhere.
   - You get to work on some of the most important projects that will
     influence the future of science and engineering.
   - You get to meet and work with the authors of various important
     packages.
   - You will be at IIT Bombay and will have best of both worlds --
     good pay and an academic environment.



Thanks.

	Shout Now!)
Message-ID: <20090504170746.GC12213@ubuntu.ubuntu-domain>

Hello all,

Python enthusiasts in India are planning to organize "PyCon India 2009".  

PyCon India 2009 will the first PyCon in India. This will be an
exclusive Python Conference dedicated to language, Python based
frameworks and all things Pythonic.

The first PyCon India 2009 dates are: 

26-September-2009 - Saturday
27-September-2009 - Sunday.

These dates are almost final, but we wanted your say on this.

Do you, as a part of a wider community, feel that 

a) These dates could clash with any other FOSS meetup?
b) These dates won't be suitable under certain conditions?

If yes, please shout now, email your reason to Senthil <orsenthil at gmail.com>.
If your reason is valid enough, we may consider for an alternative
date. 

*Help Required:*

Please circulate this email to other user-groups. PyCon
India might be interesting to them and let them be aware of the dates
too.

Thanks,
Senthil

Can you point us to the project of this script? Standalone, this won't
be helpful at all.

Subject: [BangPypers] Joins with Django
Message-ID: <9a1343d10905052251v38e5d692v1ac9c3dbb3bf3453@mail.gmail.com>

Hello All,

I am trying to learn django and write a small application. I am facing issue
in executing a join with django.
I am able to find a work around by executing a raw SQL query using cursor.
But that have problem that I need to access fields using
"object.0' or 'object.1'  which is too verbose and error prone.

Is there better way of doing the same thing or executing joins using Django
models.

here is my table structure

table 1 : Company
id = IntField
name = CharField

table 2 : Schmes
id = Int field
Name = CharFiled
comp_id = ForeignKey (company)

table 3 : Price

scheme_id = ForeignKey(Schemes)
price          = CharField()
Date          = DateTimeField()

I want to execute a query on the price table where I can select the price of
all the schemes for the specified company.

something like this if I write SQL :

select price from Price, Schemes, Company where Price.scheme_id = Scheme.id
and Scheme.comp_id = Company.id and Company.id = 1.

Thanks,
Puneet

Hi Puneeth
select_related() follows all relationships and pre-caches any foreign key
values so that complex trees can be fetched in a single query. However, this
isn?t always a good idea, so the depth argument control how many ?levels?
the select-related behavior will traverse.
I could have write the query for you but if you refer this doc link
http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/models/select_related/ and try
with yourself then will be good as you are trying to learn Django.
Thanks

Fair enough, Senthil. I'll go ahead with just Zine on May 9.

Anyone who wants  to discuss anything else is still more than welcome.

Puneet,

Try something like this:

company = Company.objects.get(name="foocorp")
prices = Price.objects.filter(scheme_id__comp_id=company)

You can use __ (double underscores) to span relationships.

The Docs have more:
http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/db/queries/#lookups-that-span-relationships

Hi all,

 I have updated the python jobs blog {http://pythonjobs.blogspot.com}
with all the job postings so far in the list in 2009.

I had developed the plugin to HarvestMan for this last year but I did
not keep up with running it on the mail archives in 2008. This year,
it is one of the things in my radar to keep this blog reasonably
up to date ;)

Regards,

Couple of suggestions.

1. It might be a good idea to strip "[BangPypers] [Commercial][Jobs] "
at the beginning of title.
2. (Posted on: Thu Apr 2 10:56:00 CEST 2009) can go into body instead of title.

Its nice to hear that Python have released first and only beta release of
Python 3.1.

Python 3.1 focuses on the stabilization and optimization of features and
changes Python 3.0 introduced.  For example, the new I/O system has been
rewritten in C for speed.

File system APIs that use unicode strings now handle paths with undecodable
bytes in them.

Other features include an ordered dictionary implementation and support for
ttk Tile in Tkinter.

Yes. Sorry, I've been lax with my email. I posted a Facebook announcement
and a few people have confirmed there. The event is on. I'll be there from 9
AM onwards, as will Anand C, but folks are welcome to drop in whenever they
find convenient.

Message-ID: <8DD9380C-0482-44F4-9553-570E8C80AFCA@sirtaj.net>

Hi all,

I've been trying to find the path of least resistance to using  
cooperative multitasking in PyQt apps.

There are a bunch of different options out there, including Twisted  
(The initial inqternet.py Qt support I wrote became the basis of the  
current Qt reactor, and it works great if you are using Twisted) and  
Kamaelia/Axon (I had a stab at implementing Qt event loop support for  
that - available here: http://sirtaj.net/projects/axonqt.py). However  
most of these approaches require you to commit to frameworks that are  
likely to shape the implementation of the rest of your app.

The two recommended ways to doing this sort of thing in Qt/C++ are:

1) use QTimer with a timeout of 0 to call some function.

2) In a long-running loop, call processEvents to allow other events to  
be processed to keep the GUI interactive.

...and that's all she wrote, since C++ doesn't really allow many  
options besides multithreading.

With the yield keyword, however, we can get the same kind of  
cooperative multitasking that we had back in 1991 with Visual Basic  
1.0 (yay!). This is the approach that Axon uses. Using the QTimer  
method above, a handful of lines of code gets us this in PyQt without  
having to use a larger framework:

---------------------------------------------------------------

from PyQt4.QtCore import QObject, SIGNAL

def qmicro(iterations=500):
     '''Qt fire-and-forget microprocess decorator.
     '''
     def wrap_qmicro(microfn):
         def call_qmicro(qobj, *call_args, **call_kwargs):
             try:
                 call_iter = microfn(qobj, *call_args, **call_kwargs)
             except StopIteration, endex:
                 return
             except:
                 raise

             return QtMicroProcess(qobj, call_iter.next, iterations)
         return call_qmicro
     return wrap_qmicro


class QtMicroProcess(QObject):
     '''A single running microprocess, scheduled in the event loop using
     timer events until completed or error.
     '''
     def __init__(self, parent, next_fn, iterations):
         QObject.__init__(self, parent)
         self.next_fn = next_fn
         self.iterations = iterations
         self.timer_id = self.startTimer(0)

     def timerEvent(self, tev):
         next_fn = self.next_fn
         try:
             for itidx in xrange(self.iterations):
                 next_fn()
             return
         except StopIteration, sex:
             pass
         except Exception, ex:
             print "QMICRO: Unhandled exception:", ex

         try:
             self.killTimer(self.timer_id)
         finally:
             self.deleteLater()

--------------------------------------------------------------

Now we can create "fire and forget" LWPs methods that can "yield" to  
the Qt event loop by simply using the @qmicro decorator:

class MyApp(QObject):
	@qmicro()
	def beer(n):
		for x in xrange(n):
			print x, "bottles of beer on the wall"
			yield

	def some_regular_method():
		beer(99) # returns immediately
		

(a slightly more fleshed out example is in the attached file)

Note that this is a deliberately simplistic implementation that has  
various limitations, eg the method has to be a method of a QObject  
subclass, and there is no builtin way to get feedback when the LWP  
exits. Still, it is a convenient bit of code you can drop into your  
PyQt project when you want to do some background work while allowing  
the rest of the app to continue relatively unaffected, while  
sidestepping the issues that come up when calling Qt code from  
multiple threads.

Hope someone finds this useful and any feedback appreciated.

-Taj.

	released
Message-ID: <9d0602eb0905102222p60de0b8atb19c1473c59da238@mail.gmail.com>

Greetings all,
  We are proud to announce the release of LDTP 1.6.0. This release features
number of important breakthroughs in LDTP as well as in the field of Test
Automation. This release note covers a brief introduction on LDTP followed
by the list of new features and major bug fixes which makes this new version
of LDTP the best of the breed. Useful references have been included at the
end of this article for those who wish to hack / use LDTP.

About LDTP:

Linux Desktop Testing Project is aimed at producing high quality test
automation framework (C / Python) and cutting-edge tools that can be used to
test Linux Desktop and improve it. It uses the Accessibility libraries to
poke through the application's user interface. The framework also has tools
to record test-cases based on user events in the interface of the
application which is under testing. We strive to help in building a quality
desktop.

Whats new in this release:

Bug fixes:

578609 - LDTP should use LOGNAME instead of (or in addition to) USER
553747 - cannot click window itself
579027 - onwindowcreate expects a _NON_ stripped window title
575120 - component should have a getrole() method (ooldtp.py)
573103 - ldtpeditor could not find glade file 'ldtpeditor.glade'
547572 - Components should be exposed in a hierarchical way

I wont' be in Bangalore during this time, but I'll talk to two other
colleagues who could chaperone this meet. I'll also make sure that we
have network access over ethernet.

Can we get either of these?

Don't we have any Googlers on this list?

That Barista is not too big so we might have space constraints.

Can we get a show of hands? How many people plan to attend? If we're
around 10 or so, I think the Barista is enough, otherwise, we'll think
of some other place.

I count 5 so far
- Anand C.
- Anand Pillai
- Senthil
- Noufal
- punchagan

Who else is coming? Just to get an approximate idea of the number of
people so that we can change venues if necessary.

Net connectivity can be enabled. For now and future it can be used
anytime without advance notice.

I think we'll stick to Barista. It's pretty findable and the
attendance is not high enough to need a larger space.

Thanks for the information though. When we do need a *real* meeting
space, it'd be useful resource.

 I may not attend. I haven't got much to report since the website
 and mailing list is a work in progress. I will follow your
 progress in the list. Someone please post a MOM after the
 meeting.

 We should preferably have a 2nd company venue in place for
 these kind of situations. Any volunteers ? I know Ramdas is
 always ready to offer his place, but are there anyone else
 somewhere in the Indiranagar-Koramangala corridor ?

Subject: [BangPypers] CPython's 'bignum' Implementation
Message-ID: <547db2260905150439w6889e832r97f4b709d0bde2c8@mail.gmail.com>

Hello all,

So, from my SO question:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/867393/how-do-languages-such-as-python-overcome-cs-integral-data-limits
, I learn that Python has 'bignum' for supporting Arbitrary Precision
arithmetic.

Now, how does CPython implement bignum? From what I gather, there is
more than way of doing it- using a different radix (base),  an array
of numbers. One hint is given by
http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0237/. However, if any of you folks
know something concrete, I would appreciate it.

Thank You

Best,
Amit

Nothing really relevant to my question. I looked at the sources, but
from the filenames atleast, I couldn't  scourge much. Also, I tried
grepping 'PyInt' once. Nothing much again. Will try again. If I find,
will post it here.


Thanks,
Amit

I have given a cursory glance to the Python code base and I think I
know how it's implemented :)

My findings are here -
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/867393/how-do-languages-such-as-python-overcome-cs-integral-data-limits/870429#870429

I would appreciate a few up-votes if you deem my answer to be satisfying :-p

Thanks for the offer. We should keep this option in mind too.
Perhaps, if you could come to one of the regular meets (like the one
we are going to have at Barista this Sunday, we would know about your
office at Girinagar too ( I don't know where Girinagar is).

Thanks,

Girinagar is in South Bangalore, not very easy to find, if you dont know the
area

We'll stick to the Barista. It would be great if would also be there Srini.

I'm sure we'll need to meet now and then to discuss specific issues
and having a place available without advance notice is useful even if
you *do* have to travel a bit.

I dont want to sell. But girinagar is on google maps.
We are on top of Canarabank opposite Radhakrishna hospital.
No hassles nobody to ask, not even me. Just use it
whenever there is no option. Just that it is too modest
an office space.

I know. My original question was already answered before you by a
couple of other folks!,

So, you will have to be content with my "Up" vote for now :)

Hey Guys, and especially Baishampayan, don't you think what you are
trying is against the spirit of the voting system.

Baishampaya, while I appreciate your response at that site, I still
have gaps in my understanding and I plan to dwell a bit later.

Here is a gist of important things we discussed.

We reiterated on:

* Dates of the Conference: September 26 and September 27th.
* 2 day format with 2 tracks each day along with Ligtening talks etc.
* Rs.200 for early bird and Rs.300 on spot for registration.
* No Keyspeaker as of now.

TODO:
* By 24th May, 2009 we should be have the website up.  There would
  be a LOGO Content for PyCon India 2009. 
* Money Matters - talk to Ramdas.

Thanks,
Senthil

To quote me, "I would appreciate a few up-votes if you deem my answer
to be satisfying".

I never begged anyone to vote for me nevertheless. Asking someone to
vote-up *if and only if* he is satisfied is not wrong, IMHO.

I have been a part of SO for enough time to understand how it works.
If anyone still feels that I am wrong, please feel free to take back
your vote.

Regards,
BG

Message-ID: <9963e56e0905180836y6eceea60tb9d049594000f5b4@mail.gmail.com>

Hello everyone,
  One of the things that came up in yesterday's meeting (whose minutes
I will post shortly) is that we need a 'logo' for PyCon India. A few
of us had ideas but artistic talent was in short supply.

  If there are any people out there that are talented in digital art,
it would be really cool if you could volunteer to make a logo for the
event. You get exclusive bragging rights. The logo after all sort of
defines the mood and style of the event. It's also cool if you can get
a logo designed by friend who's artistically clued in. We're not
paying for this and like the rest of the effort want it to be
something that springs from the community.

  We'll put up the submitted logos on the wiki, people can vote for
them and we can hopefully have something by the end of the week.

Thanks much.

In case it comes up, it is permitted to use a modified form of the Python or
PyCon logos, as long as it is submitted to the PSF logo committee for
approval.  Not a big deal, they just want to insure it is in good taste and
uses consistent coloring/fonts.

As an example of a modified logo, check out the EuroPython logo at:

Can we somehow avoid using the flag in the background. Do other pyCon logos
have respective country falgs in the background.
I dont mean to suggest that using the flag is wrong...just that do we need
to use the flag in order to show that this is happening in India?...its
actually going to be an international conference.

we should use something else to suggest that its happening in India...how
about "Python" written in the national languages of India.

Otherwise, The logo is great... its got my vote too :)

pycon brasil and pycon italia do not have a real logo. Pycon UK incorporates 
their flag.

If it was pycon asia that was happening in India I would agree - but this is 
India

too complicated - a logo needs to be small and easily scalable

As we want PyConIndia logo, i would like to suggest to create a globe(earth)
inside that we can maximize (bit enlarge like when we try to see the India
with optical lens) and upon that we can put the Python image.
so the logo objective would be as the PyCon is happening in India but cover
whole world.

Sorry i am not perfect in PhotoEditor.

Thanks

We need more submissions. The ideas are good but unless someone
actually gets down to drawing them, we can't really use them.
Anand had a nice idea about involving a snake charmer somehow into the logo.

I've asked a couple of my artist buddies to take a crack at the logo.
As soon as I get their work, I'll send it to the list. One thing which
he mentioned was if we are making a dead trees type sponsorship kit,
we'll need a high resolution print version of the logo.

Hi Python brothers,

I am recent subscriber to this mailing list. Actually, I didn't know about Bangpypers before reading an email from Anand in the PyCon US mailing list. Pity, I might have missed many healthy discussions here earlier, but its better late than never :-)

Something about me: My name is Pankaj Nathani and people know me as Croozeus in PyS60 world. I am a developer of mobile applications on Symbian platform. I spend most of my time developing applications on Python for S60. For those of who may not be familair with Python for S60 - better known as PyS60, is Nokia?s port of the Python runtime to the S60 smartphone platform. 

I am pretty much excited about PyCon India. I had been invited to speak about PyS60 at PyCon Brazil eariler and am looking forward see some PyS60 topics on the agenda of PyCon India as well.

Not to deviate much from the topic of the email - PyCon India logo - How about something like the graphic attached herewith? Just scribbled something that struct my mind. Would appreciate comments. (Ah, I am not a designer;-) )

Best Regards,
Pankaj.

We need more submissions. The ideas are good but unless someone
actually gets down to drawing them, we can't really use them.
Anand had a nice idea about involving a snake charmer somehow into the logo.

I've asked a couple of my artist buddies to take a crack at the logo.
As soon as I get their work, I'll send it to the list. One thing which
he mentioned was if we are making a dead trees type sponsorship kit,
we'll need a high resolution print version of the logo.

Hi,

>From the submissions so far, this gets my vote although I think it needs some minor tweaks.

Looks good, though the black text does not blend in well. Looks cute, but too small for now - like an icon. Needs some encircling elements or something to decorate - some blending text might help as well.


Thanx,

Cheers,
--Pankaj, who is good at imagining but not a gfx designer.

Can you replace the one on the wiki with this? I don't want it to
disappear in a mail thread.  It's definitely nicer than the last.

>A variation of previous logo. We have attempted to incorporate the inputs from the group.

Quite impressive quick work. 

Would prefer "Pycon-India" to be written horizontally rather than transversely - easy readability counts! May be "Pycon-India" and "2009" could interchanged. Imo, it would be easier to read numbers vertically rather than text. If the alignment doesn't fit the "Pycon-India" below the logo - than perhaps think about droping the "India" word (the flag makes India obvious) or using "Pycon - 2009" instead.

I think we are now moving on the lines of this logo - few more variants of this logo should be proposed and the voted one chosen.


Cheers,
--Pankaj, who quite likes the desgin of this logo

logo is good may I suggest a change... remove the gree color and the rounded
corners instead make saffron full bleed from left to right.

That looks good.

Here is another idea if you want to try.

Take europython logo[1] and fill the circle with tricolors and write
"pycon india 2009" using the font used in your logo.

[1]: http://www.europython.eu/

I just tried this and I think it looks rather tacky. I've attached the
svg here if you want to try tweaking it.

Nice imagination. I like the way you "hindicized"
the Pycon.

This is really good but a bit broad for a logo.
Is there a way to reduce the width ?

Hi,

Many potential designs - we have great designers in the community I must say :-)

I like many of the designs but it is difficult to judge which one is the best without seeing all together at one place. 

I propose - after uploading all the logo designs to the Wiki - we should hold a private poll to choose the final one. Email voting is not a good idea, imo- many people keep changing their votes tempted by seeing new, better logos and many have +1 for all the good designs - making it difficult to choose one. So, how about a private poll for choosing the logo once we have all the nominated designs on the Wiki page?

We could use web private poll tools like vizu perhaps? or any good one that others might have had experience with. 

There would be many times in the course of organizing the Pycon  that we would need the community to choose or decide among certain alternatives. We could start the private polls whenever we need such things.

Also, I feel it would help if we could have a list of points on the wiki page itself that the logo should appeal or indicate - like Python (snake), Python logo, Indian flag, tri colours, Indian conference, etc? 

Just my 2p,

Cheers,
--Pankaj, who welcomes healthy discussions

No private polls.
Everyone gets to  vote on the Wiki. I've put up some. I'll put up the
rest on the site.

Why not just use the wiki?

I still prefer the wiki.

I have a logos page already up. Please add these points there. It's a
wiki. Everyone can collaborate on it. :)

Hi Noufal,

>Everyone gets to  vote on the Wiki. 
>Why not just use the wiki?

Sorry, may be I am missing something here. I am really not aware how to vote on a Wiki :-( How do the votes count? Does it accept one vote per person? Are the votes visible somewhere - I would like to see what people prefer before voting?

Wondering,

Cheers,
Pankaj, still baffled

I've collated some of the votes and put them on the wiki. Please add
one to the numbers there to get your favourite logo up.

I'll probably be getting one or two more tomorrow. I'll put those up as well.
Please vote on the wiki.

Thanks.

3 more. I like the first of these the most of all the ones so far.
It's simple and elegant. We can use it anywhere.  The third one has a
nice trick with the tongue. :)

Hello Pypers !

All logo on wiki page are really good. Great work from community. I think
logo shouldn't have year '2009'. I guess we want logo for "PyCon India" and
not just for this years event. We are going to have such events every year (
at least next five years). And, we are not suppose to change logo every year
!

I think all logo designers should consider this thing in mind that We want
logo for "PyCon  India"  organization and not for event (PyCon India 2009)
of organization.

Waiting for comments.

Thanks and regards

That can be take care of with a little GIMP work. I think we should
just concentrate on voting up the best logo. We *can* have different
ones each year too. But let's not think that far right now. :)

Hi,

Morning :-)

>And, we are not suppose to change logo every year !
Changing the year in the logo every year shouldn't be a problem. If the logo doesn't have the year mention - we should have to explicitly mention it below the logo everywhere to tell the people that its an event for 2009. I prefer 2009 being on the logo rather than explictly.

>3 more. I like the first of these the most of all the ones so far.
Yeap, quality seems to be increasing day by day. I like the 3rd one with the tongue out. Should vote for it...

>these are on the wiki BTW so please vote.
Just tried to vote. Added a +1 to the 3rd logo. Because of the alignment it appears under the 1st one. Rolled back - not able to vote.

Cheers,
--Pankaj, whose voting efforts went miserably futile on the wiki

No problem. We'll look at the wiki source to get the votes anyway.
Just put it next to the image in the source of the page.

I think the votes are skewed since I added a lot of votes when the
number of designs was just 3. I'm subtracting my initial numbers from
all the images.

On second thought, forget it. I'll probably mess it up.
We'll anyway have to finally decide. If there's any skewing, we can
take it up then.

Message-ID: <9a1343d10905222233gc35277ehb07319f9f32deab0@mail.gmail.com>

Hi All,

I am facing issue when I am trying to access session variables in django.

I am setting the session variable something like :

 request.session['cityname'] = cityname
 c = RequestContext(request, {'current_date': now})
 html = t.render(c)
 return HttpResponse(html)

And I am trying to access it like :

{{ request.session.cityname }}
and
{{ request.cityname }}

But it does not seem to be working. Any suggestions ?

Thanks,
Puneet

This should work. Have you set MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES properly
in settings.py, and added django.contrib.sessions to your
INSTALLED_APPS? See the top of
http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/http/sessions/
or the appropriate documentation version for your Django
version.

Subject: [BangPypers] New Mailing Lists
Message-ID: <4A17CB33.304@taupro.com>

Partially as a result of nudging from Anand Balachandran Pillai for the needs
of PyCon India, there are now two new mailing lists on python.org:

(1) The conferences at python.org mailing list is for open discussion of
issues related to Python conferences.  All conferences are welcome:
established and planned, worldwide.  The archive is open to all.

Subscribe here: http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/conferences

The charter of this list is for the organizers of the various conferences
world-wide -- regional as well as national, to come together to share ideas
and discuss how they run their conferences.  It's not for the detailed
planning of a specific conference.  For those motivated to be an organizer, it
will be a good place to get peer support.

(2) The list specific to detailed planning of PyCon India:

  http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/inpycon


And totally unrelated to the other two, there is also a new list for
discussing concurrency and Python; threads, processes and more.

  http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/concurrency-sig

Thank you Jeff for these lists.

India 2009, please join the inpycon list. We'll move all discussions
regarding the event over there. If you're aware of any other Indian
Python related list (other user groups) that this mail needs to be

First of all refer the doc of Django what Gora suggested you.
Use the print statement or pdb to trace the line.
I have doubt in the line
 request.session['cityname'] = *cityname*
you should write  request.session['cityname'] = *request*.POST[cityname] or
just check the value of cityname.
Thanks.

 Thanks a lot Jeff for your help in getting these lists created.
 The inpycon list will be of great help in coordinating the activities
  related to PyCon India.

  I was a bit late to this news, since I did not check my email
  yesterday. I see that the list already has been subscribed
  by many.

  We will be moving all discussion related to PyCon India organizing
  to this list. Let us not cross-post to BangPypers any discussions on
  PyCon India and keep the discussions focussed in the new list.

  Btw, the new conferences at python.org is a new list which could
  be used to get general advice worldwide regarding *any* Python
  conference. So if any of you would like advice from a wider audience
  regarding conference questions, please subscribe/post to this list.
  The "Pycon-organizers" list is specific to Pycon-US.

Very nicely written.
It's been a week and we have made (at least) some progress.
Let us plan to meet up next week and look at how many points do we
cross off.

    Nothing in the voting system to prevent you from doing that.
 After all it is just a Wiki.

 Btw, I have numbered each logo. It would have been better to have
 a separate voting page with the logo # actually. Editing the entire
 page for voting is rather tricky.

Subject: [BangPypers] Reg Expression problem and Unicode...
Message-ID: <558124520905261925med25e54l874bf872781c8217@mail.gmail.com>

Hello everyone...

I have a small problem...I'm trying to match a pound symbol in a document
using Python.  (Version 2.5.2, although I also ran this under 2.6 and it
seemed to give the same result.  But ultimately I need correct code for
2.5.2)

Here's the code:

#!/usr/bin/env python
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
import re

########## This part doesn't work doesn't work right...but at least it
matches

text = "The Price ?7"
pattern = u"?\d"

m = re.search(pattern, text, re.UNICODE)
print m.group(0)

########## This part fails to get a match completely

pattern = u" ?\d"
m = re.search(pattern, text, re.UNICODE)
print m.group(0)


Now what I would expect to happen is that the first half of the code would
print out:
?7

Instead it prints out:
?7

Which is doubly weird cause it can print the pound charcter in the
pattern...

The second half of the code should do the same thing except include the
space at the beginning.

So I expect:
 ?7

but instead get an exception.

I've tried (I believe) every combination of using re.UNICODE or not, as well
as quoting the strings with u or just leaving them as normal.  Nothing
seemed to solve the problem.

Thank you for the help!

Your text is in utf-8 encoding and pattern in unicode.
Make text unicode solves the issue.

text = u"The Price ?7"
pattern = u"?\d"
m = re.search(pattern, text, re.UNICODE)
print m.group(0).encode('utf-8')

How about the Condorcet or the Schulze (internal elections?) method,
both of which iirc are used by debian. If its too complicated a
procedure, maybe each voter could write the number next to their name
indicating first, second, third... choice. Ex. $yourName/ID (1)

[0] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Condorcet_method
[1] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schulze_method

Anand C. * mentioned that it might make sense to have an official logo
and a few 'sticker designs' (for laptop 13,14,15,16 and 17 seem to be
quite suited for both. Food for thought.

Looking at the exciting logos that came up for the PyCon India 2009; I
am inclined to believe that we do have good CSS designers in our
group.
The PyCon India website, currently hosted at http://greenchilly.in
needs someone with CSS skills.  Would any of you like to pitch in? You
may directly contact Kenneth as he is the administrator of the app.

Okay. Voting's over. Here are the results. Top 3 in increasing order of votes.

2. Logo no. 8 (from Smriti) *  - 4 votes
1. Logo no. 9 (from Vipin)      - 9 votes
0. Logo no. 14 (by Bharat Keshav) - 14 votes


* - According to David Goodger, this one alters the python logo and we
might have trademark issues with the PSF. It's not amongst the top 2
so we can ignore it. I mailed psf-trademarks about this but didn't
really get any replies. We'll stay away to be safe.

Between logo 9 and 14, I think we should keep one as the Logo for the
site and the other as a sticker design for the swag and laptop
stickers (the more public face).

I think 9 is simple enough to go on a site and 14 looks more
'stickerish'. What do you all think?

I would say just go for one logo. Whichever won. 
Have it in site. Let us make stickers if really need to. Thinking
about stickers is a minor thing that would be part of the swag.
But Logo would be there at many places and in stickers too.

So, I would suggest not to mix it here.
The contest was for Logos and we can just do the logo first.

Totall agreed. So logo no 14. it is then. I've updated the wiki to
reflect this.

Whoever is helping Kenneth with the design, this is your 'official'
logo for the site.

The PyCon India website wants YOU!

We need a volunteer to admin the site. No coding work. You'll
basically have to babysit the application and will have
admin/superuser privileges on it.

The current admins are in Ooty so we'd prefer someone from B'lore.

Please reply if you're game or if you have any questions.

Hi Sriinivas,
  Please join the inpycon list. There are lots of things for which we
need volunteers. As we move forwards, things will keep coming up and
it would be wonderful to have people interested in contributing then.

Thanks.
