Let me see what all I can recollect from those early meetups. I attended my first bangpypers meetup in late 2005 (or may be early 2006). It was at ThoughtWorks. I vaguely remember Anand Pillai, Ramki (Redhat) and a person called Tom from that meetup. There used to be very interesting discussions those days. This guy Tom built programming system called livelogic, that allows you a define you own programming language on top of python using some kind of macro system. It was really fascinating. The website for live-logix is not there anymore, but you can find a copy of it on the wayback machine. http://web.archive.org/web/20061019042727/http://livelogix.net/logix/ It is really fascinating to see bangpypers come all the way here, becoming such a big group! Congratulations everyone! Anand _______________________________________________ BangPypers mailing list BangPypers@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/bangpypers
