Ben Nuttall on "GPIO Zero", and Bring a Question

Ben Nuttall will talk about GPIO Zero (http://pythonhosted.org/gpiozero/), a new education friendly API for Raspberry Pi GPIO handling.

Ben says "It's got some really interesting concepts in the codebase I'd love to dive in to and explain. Some of the cleverest features have been implemented by a friend from Manchester, Dave Jones, who maintains the picamera library. He's done some brilliant work."

Ben is the Education Developer Advocate at the Raspberry Pi Foundation (http://www.raspberrypi.org/).

If we have time after that, I'd like to ask people to Bring a Question - something that you could do with some help with, or an idea about how to approach, or just something you wonder about Python. We can then try, as a group, to figure out answers.

This meeting will be held at the Department of Engineering (http://map.cam.ac.uk/Department+of+Engineering#52.198333,0.120971,18) (that should link to a map). This allows us to be flexible on numbers - it there aren't very many people, we can use a smaller room, and if we get a lot of RSVPs, we can scale up.

There will not, however, be food provided - not because of the venue, but just becaue of it being near the New Year.
