BTW, I'll just note that Eric emailed me before posting this. While
most of us tend to use Python rather than Ruby, I figured that it's
hard enough to spread the word about local events like this so I told
Eric to "go for it".

Now, if it were a Java event...

Perhaps a Michigan Python Bash is in order.  Just from interviewing local candidates over the last year there seems to be a pretty large community of python users enrolled and coming out of the University in AA.

When I read the subject line, I assumed we were getting together to
bash Ruby... ;-)

Hey, doesn't mean we can't do it anyway!

I'll bring the beer! Let's crash this party!

seriously though, would people be interesting in doing a similar event for python in this area?

On a semi-related note, there is work ongoing to get an AppEngine hack-a-thon here sometime in November.
