[portland] TUESDAY: What's New in 2.6 and 3.0 10/14 7pm

[jason kirtland]

Hi folks,

Python 2.6 has been released and 3.0 will be shortly.  We'll be 
celebrating their releases this Tuesday with a D.I.Y. What's New party!

The format is simple: pick a change or two from the What's New in Python 
documentation from 2.6 or 3.0 and tell us about it!  You can use the 
projector if you want, but < 5 minutes.  That's easy because most 
changes are small.

Here's an example from 3.0:

   "Removed <> (use != instead)."

So easy!  Find some and bring 'em to us.  If you get inspired and want 
to share one of the few larger changes (< 10 min), check the wiki and 
put your name down.

I'll be bringing *two growlers* of rare and wonderful beer from Bailey's 
Taproom to get the party started.  Bring hardcopy of one or both What's 
New if you can.  And party hats.
