Next Meeting: March 17th

> The next third Wednesday is Wednesday, March 17th. There was a bit of talk on IRC of possible topics, but nothing that jumped out. If nothing else, I've been meaning to try out Celery, the queue-based offline task processor. Any interest in a demo and description of that? Anyone else have something they'd like to show off?
I've been doing some work on a little in-house model migration library
that has about 1/10th of the features of South (but also doesn't break
horribly when combined with other libraries that rely on low-level
model behavior). Also, I've been doing some experiments into getting
application logs in to various NoSQL stores, including CouchDB and
MongoDB.
I could prep some code and/or slides on either topic, or just share
impressions over beers if there are other presentations ready to go.

Those all sound great.
Personally, I'm more excited about the logging to a document store -
we're doing a lot with MongoDB and I'm always happy to hear more about
working with them.
However, the in-house migration tool sounds great - South is often a
bit... um... Southlike. In a good way! Except when it's not.

Shall I put you down for one or both of these? I'll make a calagator entry later today.

> I like both of these ideas, Lennon. It's up to you as to how formal you want to be -- I imagine people would be curious to see a bit of code on both; otherwise it's hard to see how things fit together.

If no one has a strong preference, I'll just show up prepared to do a
code walkthrough on both libraries, and we can take a show of hands to
see which one gets presented.
If there's time I'd like to hear a bit more about Celery, too -- we've
deferred (pun intended) any work on a background job queue for our
main Django project thus far, so I'm still exploring options on that
front.
Lennon Day-Reynolds
Doh! I just went to put this on my calendar, and realized that this
Wednesday is St. Patrick's day. I will unfortunately be busy with a
dinner party that was scheduled weeks ago.
I'd be happy to present next month, by which time at least some of the
code I want to present will hopefully have been released as open
source. (We're still deciding on a licensing and hosting plan for our
in-house utility libraries.)
My apologies for the last-minute change,
Lennon
Adam Lowry
those topics for April.
Anyone else have something they've been playing with and want to show
off? I also took a look at using gunicorn as a web server, but I don't
think I can speak effectively on it.

And perhaps in a month or two, perhaps Chris McDonald can give us an update -- he's been doing some hacking to remove a couple Django dependencies so that celery will work more easily on any Python project.
It's not too early to think about April's meeting, Wednesday the 21st! Perhaps we should have a monthly project/package, like pdxpython's monthly module?
