Hi,

The Auckland Python meetup is in a couple of days (Wednesday 18th July,
6:30pm http://www.meetup.com/nz-python-user-group/events/61730772/). Our
guest speaker is a businessman who uses Python in the core of his
product. Igor is an interesting speaker and there will be plenty of time
for questions. Here is the blurb:

All the best,

Grant Paton-Simpson (standing in temporarily for Stuart Mitchell)

Thanks Grant,

I'd like to also mention that the very first NZPUG meetings were held
at Vadacom's premises (back then) on K'Road.

Cheers,
Danny

Regrettably, I shall be in Wellington on Wednesday and so will miss this talk which I would very much like to hear. Any chance of making an audio recording of the presentation to go with the accompanying slides?

Igor is an interesting speaker and there will be plenty of time for

Vadacom is one of the few places in New Zealand using Python for product
development.

This presentation is the story of Vadacom, from the first installation
using open source Asterisk PBX, to where Vadacom is today. Igor will talk
about the product history, the open source tools used and the reasons they
were chosen.

Igor is a software developer turned businessman. Eighteen years experience
in New Zealand's IT industry. In 1999 Igor co-founded Asterisk, New
Zealand's first Linux specialist practice that was later sold to Gen-i. In
2005 Igor co-founded Vadacom. Igor was one of the founding members of the
New Zealand Open Source society and one of the first advocates of the use of
Open Source technology by New Zealand businesses.

All the best,

Grant Paton-Simpson (standing in temporarily for Stuart Mitchell)

If i were in Auckland, this would be a must-not-miss event.
Igor's product is a shining example of uber-smart product development
from start to finish, and would be worth seeing for everyone -
especially those in prod dev, but from a pure python technology point of
view its awesome too.

Wish I could be there.

Regards,

D.
