Re: [python-uk] UK Python Conference - 19-22 April 2006

Andy,
That looks like a great programme, but I note from the website that the
early bird registration discount is only available till 10th February. It
would be great if that were a typo and that they in fact meant 10th March!

Subject: [python-uk] UK Python Conference - 19-22 April 2006


The ACCU is once again hosting a UK Python Conference on the above dates 
at the Randolph Hotel in Oxford.  Sign up now.

   http://www.accu.org/index.php/conferences/2006/schedule

PROGRAMME
=
I am happy to announce that Guido van Rossum is once again a keynote 
speaker for the entire ACCU conference.   Following his keynote we have 
a single, 2-day Python track on Wednesday and Thursday including...

Steve Holden: The Best of PyCon
Michael Hudson: Error Handling with Recovery
Phil Thompson: PyQT 4
Michael Hudson: PyPy - a progress report
Simon Willison: Django
Remi Delon:  CherryPy and TurboGears
Chris Withers: Templating systems
Andy Robinson: Metadata and models in Python
Andrew Thompson: Financial Programming in Python

...and of course lightning talks and BOFS will be welcome


Friday will feature a Dynamic Languages track with in-depth talks on 
Javascript, Ruby and Groovy, which I am sure will be of great interest 
to Python developers.

PRE CONFERENCE PYTHON TUTORIAL:
===
John Pinner will be giving a full day "Python for Programmers" tutorial 
on Tuesday prior to the main event.  This tutorial is aimed at 
programmers who have no previous knowledge of Python but who would like 
to know more about it. If you want to convert your colleagues, this is 
where to send them


ABOUT THE ACCU CONFERENCE
=
For those not familiar with the event, the ACCU conference is one of the 
foremost gatherings of programming talent in the world, regularly 
featuring authors and major figures from the C/C++/C#/Java/Python and 
other communities.The cheapest way to attend is to join the ACCU

This will be the LAST CHANCE to attend this fantastic event; after more 
than 5 years of being nurtured by the ACCU, the UK Python community will 
hopefully be organising a standalone conference in future years.  Python 
talks will continue to be welcome (and we hope numerous) on the ACCU 
programme, but not as an advertised "mini-conference"; instead we'll be 
shifting focus to dynamic languages in general.



Best Regards,


Andy Robinson
ACCU Conference Committee

Re: [python-uk] Python Developers wanted, Troon Scotland

2007-06-14 Thread Matthew Webber
Hi David,

+1 to everyone who said that there's no problem with a recruitment post
relevant to the group (as yours is).

As someone else pointed out, the post was a little short on information,
though I did find via Google what I presume is the job you're referring to.
Is it possible this could be done remotely (teleworking)?

Thanks
Matthew

Hi - sorry f this is out of order but I am fed up with recruitment
agencies and would like to pay 100% of what we pay to developers or
companies if at all possible - it makes more sense.

We are an R&D company based in Troon and are looking fro python
developers to work on a p2p application. If you are or know of anyone
please get in touch with me.

I hope this is not perceived as a bad thing to do in this list - if it
is sorry in advance.

David (NOT an agency merely an employer)

Re: [python-uk] Biggest Fake Conference in Computer Science

2013-05-01 Thread Matthew Webber
It is irrelevant whether it is genuine or not, the message is completely
off-topic for this forum, and should not have been posted here.
It looks like someone has got really worked up about something (rightly or
wrongly), and decided to tell the entire work about it (definitely wrong).
That's my take, anyhow.
Matthew

He probably did. It was a subtle dig at the recruiter mixing up "principle"
and "principal".

Share and enjoy.

>> Also my name is Sophie not "recruiter".
Hi Sophie,
My apologies for any offence caused by my part in this.
In fact in my original message, when I said "recruiter" rather than your
name, it was because I didn't want to make it personal. Guess I should have
thought it through a little more!
