From mclay@eeel.nist.gov Tue Apr 9 22:35:36 1996 From: mclay@eeel.nist.gov (Michael McLay) Date: Tue, 9 Apr 96 17:35:36 EDT Subject: [PYTHON META-SIG] Proposal for new SIG on Factory Automation Message-ID: <9604092135.AA07528@acdc.eeel.nist.gov> There is a growing interest in using Python as an alternative to Rocky Mountain Basic, C, and other languages that are commonly used to control instruments in factory workcells. I have been asked to set up a mailing list for a group to use in developing an interface definition. Here's the blurb for the group. ########################## eFactory-SIG ############################ eFactory-SIG, a Special Interest Group for using Python for Factory Automation This list has been created in order to discuss using Python to control equipment in laboratories and factory settings. Participants will define Python extensions that will support the use to control equipment and interface the equipment to analysis software and factory control systems. The special interest group will develop a proposal for and coordinate the implementation of Python modules for interfaces to equipment through GPIB and other commonly used instrument and equipment control hardware technologies. The scope of the work for the group will be defined in more detail once the mailing list is in place About this list: Additions and deletions are all automated via Majordomo. For details, send the word `help' in the body of a mail message to the Administrivia address given below. The subscription policy is `open', meaning you can add or delete yourself at any time, but you cannot add or delete anyone else without approval. This list is unmoderated and unrestricted. This means that anybody can post messages to the list. Messages are archived and available for download, as are perhaps other useful files. For details, send the word `index' in the body of a message to the Administrivia address. Post messages to the everyone on the list by using the List address. If you absolutely must to contact a human being, use the Owner address. ============================================================ List address: efactory-sig@python.org Administrivia: efactory-sig-request@python.org Owner: efactory-sig-owner@python.org ================================================= ================= META-SIG - SIG on Python.Org SIGs and Mailing Lists send messages to: meta-sig@python.org administrivia to: meta-sig-request@python.org ================= From mclay@eeel.nist.gov Tue Apr 9 22:35:36 1996 From: mclay@eeel.nist.gov (Michael McLay) Date: Tue, 9 Apr 96 17:35:36 EDT Subject: [PYTHON META-SIG] Proposal for new SIG on Factory Automation Message-ID: <9604092135.AA07528@acdc.eeel.nist.gov> There is a growing interest in using Python as an alternative to Rocky Mountain Basic, C, and other languages that are commonly used to control instruments in factory workcells.
