[portland] Planning for the August Meeting

[jason kirtland]

The Meetup group just sent out a reminder that our next meeting is 
2 weeks away and the agenda is still TBD.  So... what should we do?

If no one has a big presentation topic in mind for August, I'll 
suggest another round of casual short talks / group discussions. 
Maybe folks who attended OSCON could do a little recap?  I'd love 
to hear a report from the Python 3000 and the multi-core sessions, 
and a demo of Python powering the Tux Droid would be great.

I can also share my experimental 5 minute "new features in Python 
2.5 / beginning Python" talk that I kept in reserve at the July 
meeting.  It's an attempt to appeal to both those just starting out 
and advanced users.  Maybe it'll work, maybe it won't.

Also, a new pub/bar/restaurant? called "The Morrison Hotel" 
recently opened up around the corner from CubeSpace.  I'm planning 
on scouting it out for suitability for social meetings and general 
adjournment.  If anyone wants to join me for a little 
between-meeting Pythonic outing just let me know.

Cheers,
Jason
