[python-uk] What trends should we watch Python during 2017..?

[Nicholas H.Tollervey]

I've been asked to answer this. I've already replied but I wonder what
the wider community think..?

My response mentioned:

* MicroPython bringing Python to embedded / IoT communities (and such
communities into the Python world).

* Python 2 / Python 3 (a perennial)

* Python in education: with the micro:bit, Calliope (German micro:bit)
and Adafruit all settling on MicroPython lots of kids and teachers will
be learning Python next year. Also viz RPi - now the most successful
computing in education project in history if measured in terms of
devices shipped (and they promote Python too).

* Python in data science. If the London PyData is anything to go by,
things have only just started in this respect.

Care to add anything else..? What about technical things to watch out
for..? Will Larry complete his Gilectomey..?

Season's greetings...

N.
