We finished it 2 weeks back. It was totally free, and we had it during our Sem holidays. Response has been totally awesome - 1 guy's been experimenting with PyGame (finished a game with scoring, sound etc. and is working on adding an AI to it - tictactoe), 1 guy's writing SMS applications, three are starting on a journey that'll end when our college's library management system is replaced by a django app, and 1 guy's learning web.py so he could build a website to rate staff in a college. And there's a plan in motion to have a weekly programming competition with code in Python, and sponsors for prize money have already been acquired. We had 14 people in the first workshop, and we're planning on having one more with just the basics towards second week of January :) And I've been personally helping as many people as possible, with one-on-one sessions of about 3-4 hours each where we pair and build something together. It's been a fun ride, and I suppose it will be fun as long as this lasts :) Any other college you know doing this? Get in touch, we can share tips, tricks and hopefully much more. -- Yuvi Panda T http://yuvi.in/blog _______________________________________________ BangPypers mailing list BangPypers@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/bangpypers
