>> Dear Nigerian Pythonistas,
>>
>> Warm greetings from the beautiful city of Windhoek. I sincerely apologize
>> for my silence and my tad bit late response in giving you guys feedback.
>>
>> First of I would like to say PyCon Namibia was awesome, the entire
>> conference which held in the University of Namibia in collaboration with
>> Cardiff University among other things focused on educating the citizens
>> of
>> Namibia in Python and other software development practices. It brought
>> Pythonistas from different places around the globe to collaborate:
>> Zambia,
>> Zimbabwe, South Africa, Senegal, Germany, UK, US, Brazil to mention a
>> few.
>> If you would like to know more you can check the hashtag #PyConNa on
>> twitter.
>>
>> Secondly, my talk amidst my personal journey also centered on getting
>> support for our community was awesome. you can view the slides here
>> <https://speakerdeck.com/aishab/my-journey-through-python-1>. After the
>> presentation we got a truck load of support from the international
>> community. Pythonistas present first were asking for the date of the
>> conference and how they would love to attend a PyCon in Nigeria which
>> might
>> turn out to be the first in West Africa. Presently over the last 5 years
>> the only PyCons recorded have been in Southern Africa with the first one
>> this year in Namibia and previous ones in South Africa.
>>
>> Since we are still new I am of the opinion that before moving on to a
>> PyCon
>> we could organize a 1-2 days Python Nigeria Conference for us local in
>> Nigeria and learn from the experience, and then move forward to organize
>> a
>> PyCon next year (*My Opinion*). Hopefully we could all talk more about it
>> during the meetup or possibly start the conversation here.
>>
>> <<Hi Lekan the Python Nigeria meetup is definitely happening on the 20th
>> of
>> February. I am still working out the logistics and I would definitely be
>> posting on here the links to registration. >>
>> Please if anyone would like to volunteer to help in organizing the meetup
>> do get in touch.
>>
>> Just on a final note after the conference some of us who attended the
>> conference talked about a Python Africa mailing list so all African
>> pythonistas could keep in touch, network, while providing a single
>> platform
>> to collaborate and share ideas on projects et.al.., and also eventually
>> the
>> possibility of a PyCon Africa *similar to a Euro Python :D *.  When the
>> mailing list  has been set up setup I'll inform everyone on here.
>>
>> Until I come your way with more news, wishing you all a Pythonic week
>> ahead
>> :D
