[BangPypers] [Bangpypers] The 100th Bangpypers Event is here :) Mark your calendars! - Feb 22, 2020

[Abhiram R]

Hi all,
It's been a long time since Bangpypers was created all those years ago by Anand
B Pillai <https://twitter.com/skeptichacker> and team and the first
Bangpypers meetup was reportedly on Jan 22 2005
<https://swaroopch.com/2005/01/22/first-bangalore-python-meetup/>, a time
when even I was in school and had no clue all this was going on. Fast
forward 15 years and 1 month and we, the current organizing team are
honored to be conducting the 100 Bangpypers Meetup - "BangpyC" as we've
decided to call it. I'll let you guess the reasons behind the name ;) .
Anyway, this momentum and this number would have been impossible to gain
without an enthusiastic and committed community such as you all and we'd
like to wholeheartedly thank you for your participation and contributions
thus far - either as speakers, hosts, past-organizers or attendees.

I've rambled sufficiently now. The *RSVP for the Meetup[1] is now open
<https://www.meetup.com/BangPypers/events/266874167/>* and the details for
