The First Pune Python meet is scheduled on 24th June.

[Sandy]

The First Pune Python meet organized by PythonThreads.com is scheduled
on 24th June. The main purpose of the meet is to introduce Python to
the developers and encourage them to use it in their daily tasks also
to raise the acceptance level of the non-Python developers by
introducing them to the Python world.

Python is used everywhere in almost all the sectors, however its not
yet popular in this part of the world (India) . Considering the growing
importance of scripting languages like Python, awareness of Python is
today a "must" for even non-Python developers. There are very few
groups in India (like Bangpypers) who are working with great efficiency
and contributing in the growth of Python. We are planning to conduct
the Python meets on every last Saturday of each month, it will help in
spreading the Python language in Pune and across the country.

We are targeting the Pune based software developers, freshers in the IT
sector for this meet. In this meet we will introduce Python, its
strengths, scope, in which sectors it can be implemented also an open
discussion on Python. IndicThreads.com Java meets are held on the last
Saturday of each month. The Python meets are also expected to follow
the same schedule.

Sandeep Gohad will speak on the basics of the Python language, sectors
in which Python is being used and about using and promoting Python. His
session will be followed by an open discussion on Python.
