[hex-dump]

Hi Everyone,

The Sydney Python group is having its first meeting for the year on
Thursday July 27.

Usual time and new place:

Thursday, July 27, 2006  (6:30 PM - 8:30 PM)

The "new" University of Sydney School of IT Building.

Thanks to Bob Kummerfeld for arranging the venue.

The venue is approx 1 km from both Central and Redfern stations.

Use the entrance from the University side, not the Cleveland St side.
If you come from City Rd, enter the Seymour Centre forecourt and
follow the curve of the new building down to the foyer entrance.

Talks:

Graham Dumpeton on what is coming in the next major version of
mod_python (3.3). This version of mod_python should represent a
significant improvement over previous versions in certain areas with
ramifications on stability. New features have also been added which
make mod_python a bit more flexible than it is now and more useable
in the way that Apache modules should be able to be used. Result
is that mod_python can truly be used for more than just a jumping off
point for stuff like WSGI and all those Python web frameworks that
keep popping up every day.

Mark Rees on his experiences in using IronPython with .NET and Mono.

The talks will be 15-20 minutes in length with plenty of time for
questions.

See you there.

Mark
