Next Python Sheffield meeting Tues April 23rd

[Daley Chetwynd]

Hi all,

Our next Python Sheffield meeting will be on Tuesday April 23rd from 18:30 - 20:30.
Note that this month we're meeting a week earlier than our usual final Tuesday. We're also meeting at Electric Works instead of the Workstation. Entrance to the meeting will be via the rear entrance of Electric Works, not the front entrance:

At this meeting we're going to watch and discuss talk videos from the recent PyCon conference. The list of talks are available at:

http://pyvideo.org/category/33/pycon-us-2013

The talks are 45 minutes in duration, so we'll have time to watch two of them and discuss their content amongst fellow attendees. If you'd like to attend, view the above list of videos and decide which two you'd like to watch (preferably ones you've not seen before). We'll vote on the evening and then watch the two videos that get the most votes.

This event is open to all levels of Python user, including those who don't currently know the Python language but would like to learn. To find out more, follow @pysheff on Twitter.

Thanks,

Daley
