Re: [python-uk] Python evening talks in London
Hello UKPU, I've been reading this list for ages but rarely (never?) post anything. I'm a music postgraduate student at the UEA in Norwich and use Python not only for my research (which is in computer models of music representation) but I've also done odd web/database jobs for the university using Python.

This would benefit people coming from a distance as well.

[python-uk] PyCon UK
Hello Pythonistas, Has anyone else registered for PyCon UK in Birmingham in September? I registered a few weeks ago and paid by cheque but I haven't heard anything from them yet. They haven't even cleared by cheque yet. Has anyone else has their registration confirmed?

And did you just give my registration a kick? Or was it coincidence that I just got a confirmation email? ;-) Will there be paperwork? And will it (and tee-shirts) come in the post? Or will we collect those at registration on the Saturday?
