http://thegisthub.net/groups/gistlab This month we have the following two speakers: Thomas Kluyver (@takluyver) - Taxonome: A Software Tool for Biological Data Simon Davy (@bloodearnest) - Virtualenv is Obsolete Simon has given the following description for his talk: "Virtualenv is the defacto standard method of managing dependencies and environments in the python ecosystem, and is included by default in Python 3.3. But there are still a number of drawbacks, and with virtual machines becoming the unit of deployment, its benefits are less clear. This talk will look at using virtualenv for deployment, and explore some of the limitations and open questions." If you'd like to join us for this meeting then please register for free at: http://pythonsheffield1207.eventbrite.com/ We're always looking for future speakers so if you'd like to talk on anything Python-related and fancy a trip over to Sheffield, please get in touch. The Python Sheffield user group is open to all levels of Python user, including those who don't currently know the language but would like to learn.
