The Austin Python Meetup Monthly Meetup
Other groups may talk about Clouds and Tornado, but APUG has... FIRE.
Our February meetup will feature a presentation by Kristopher Overholt (http://www.koverholt.com/) on modeling the dynamics of fire with Python. If your server room burned down and you want to know how to determine if a faulty PDU or a disgruntled sysadmin is to blame, or if you just like to see videos of computer-calculated fire, then be sure to join us!
We will also have time for some lightning talks, and I will kick things off by showing how to write an IRC bot with Python. If you have a cool project or have just started using some neat Python tech, put together a quick 5-10 minute demo and email me to sign up!
Afterwards, as usual, we will head over to Buffalo Billiards for beers and more banter.
Cheers,
Peter

Chad BakerThe fire presentation was great, and I found the presentation on NAND flash highly informative. The other two presentations were good, but I think it would've been better to have firm time limits for all the presentations and maybe a 10 minute break after the first presentation. I was expecting the whole thing to be over at about 9, and then I would have some time to mingle. I left during questions at 9:30, a little disappointed that I did not get to talk to anyone. I think it might be a good idea to have a separate area for hanging out because some people are interested in only some of the presentations and might have a better time socializing and talking about python. Having said all of that, the pizza was great, and the beer selection was phenomenal! Sierra Nevada Stout might be a good addition.
