Tech Fest Meetings

Chris Seberino, 12/1/03

I'd like feedback on idea of doing a Python introduction at a TechFest. This would be an all day class for complete beginners. Don't post your comments here but email me at chris@pythonsoft.com. See my post to kplug-steer to reply there also.

I believe people will respond to TechFests? that center on major development tools and platforms. For example, discussions of gcc, gdb, expect, and so on.

In this spirit, I could volunteer (much easier if Josh would co-volunteer) to do a TechFest of the yaab lpsg project, which (to remind all) concerned using various GUI tools to interface with a postgresql back end. Cool stuff, and we made some good progress. The reason I would want Josh available is that he's worlds ahead of me on administering postgres (and probably lots more, but that's another story).

Down the road I might volunteer to do a TechFest (TF) on Source Control Management (SCM) using subversion (remembering the general meeting presentation I did on CVS) ... but subversion is in release 0.16.xx, so that's premature.

LTSP and Mosix? 23Jan03

This may be better in an InstallFest? arena where there is more room and tools for doing an LTSP and Mosix installation demo... but this is something I'd really like to see. There was a Mosix demo a few months ago...
