Very interesting and enjoyable presentation from Stuart Williams on
"Python Scripting in the Enterprise", the story of how a large
corporation came to adopt Python as its enterprise scripting language --
by relying on evidence-based decision making and without shrill
fanaticism or overt Python advocacy. Thanks, Stuart!
Toward the end of last nights meeting, I offered to do a presentation on
setuptools[1]. However, I've decided that since a) setuptools isn't part
of the standard library and b) it is based on distutils[2] which *is* in
the standard library, that I would rather do my presentation on (some
parts of) distutils rather than on setuptools.
As yet we have no topic for February 25th. Suggestions?
Regards,
Syd
