From aishabello2050 at gmail.com Sun Nov 22 18:53:45 2015 From: aishabello2050 at gmail.com (Aisha Bello) Date: Sun, 22 Nov 2015 23:53:45 +0000 Subject: [python-nigeria] Does A Python Community Exist in Nigeria Message-ID: Hello everyone, This seems like a long shot but I was wondering if there was a python community in Nigeria. My name is Aisha Bello, I am a graduate student at Cardiff Metropolitan studying IT and I am a very recent Pythonista. I am organizing a DjangoGirls workshop in Lagos. DjangoGirls is a not for profit organization that teaches women all over the world how to be creators of Technology by teaching them how to build a website using the Django framework. I am looking forward to being a part of the Nigeria Pythonistas community if one exists, and seeing if this mailing lists works. I believe the power of Python is in it's strong and amazing community asides being a great language in itself. I am looking forward to getting a response if indeed this list works and there's anyone here.

Well, sort of . I think your djangoGirl workshop is a wonderful idea and would like to help in anyway I can. I believe others here will as well. As for a python community, not really. But this will be a good time to get one up and running.

Thanks for your response Bayo and Osemeka. As regards the DjangoGirls event, thanks to CCHub who would be hosting us. It's set to happen on the 19th and 20th o February next year and the moment the website is live with all the necessary information I would do a press release here. Thanks for offering to help we would defintely need help with mentors who would coach the women as well as sponsors for the event. But the big picture is 30 women, 10 coaches and a bit of Django awesomeness. Would provide more details later. As regards the Python community thanks to Naomi Ceder who is on the PSF board and helped bring to live this mailing list after a really long time of inactivity, she assures us of any support needed and it would be possible to create a working group of the PSF board to promote Python in Nigeria. A more pressing conversation which led me to checking the mail list was this conversation http://radar.techcabal.com/t/python-django-developers-community-in-nigeria/1416/10 and also another passionate community member Olabayo Onile-Ere did a post too http://radar.techcabal.com/t/python-the-community-and-my-first-post/3346/2 There are also a number of Nigerian Pythonistas who are also interested in getting a community started. The most important thing is that there is an active mailing list where other Pythonistas can come and throw and share ideas, then we could definitely organize our first meetup afterwards. I'll put a post on there in the forum directing everyone interested in being part of the community to subscribe to this mailing list and we can get the conversation started and the ball rolling on promoting Python in Nigeria.
