I'm _very_ interested.

Hi René, Yup, there is time *and* interest - I've just updated the signup page and you're booked! :-) Looking forward to meeting you and hearing your talk! Nicholas.

Re: [python-uk] Announcing the 4th London Code Dojo: Thursday 3rd December
Hi Carles, Python+QT sounds very interesting. It'd be good if we could organise an evening of Python+(insert UI toolkit here) talks so we can compare and contrast. Even a handful of short (10-15 minute) introductions followed by some practical coding on a shared outcome (i.e. everyone attempts to implement some easy task) would be a lot of fun and good "educational" value. Any takers on other UI toolkits..? I can think of tk (comes as standard in Python), GTK, wxWindows and QT... any more...? Nicholas.

In my daily work I program in C++ and Qt, and I have done something in Pyqt some time ago. If we want someone real Pyqt expert, the people who is doing Pyqt is from UK: http://www.riverbankcomputing.co.uk/news (plus Nokia starting a similar project with different license...) > an evening of Python+(insert UI toolkit here) talks so we can compare > and contrast.

I didn't think about it, but we could define a simple task (e.g. phone book manager) and implement with different tookits. That could be very nice. -- Carles Pina i Estany http://pinux.info ___ python-uk mailing list python-uk@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-uk
