Re: [BangPypers] PyCon India Proposal
You can start by announcing it in 1) All User Groups -- like django, TG, Pylons, etc. There are a few hundred user groups.. It is viral. 2) Bloggers can start blogging about it. 3) We can have a few magazines as Media sponsors. We can get the ads bartered. 4) Target LUGs. There are lots of Python fans there. 5) Get a few high profile bloggers in India and abroad to write about it. Personal requests will help. 6) Its extremely important to get the big cos which has some interest in Python involved. say Google. They can help evangelizing the conference. 7) If we are officially Pycon India, then don't worry, there will be automatic links out of most Python related sites. You can bet that anyone who's interested in Python will be visiting one such places in the next 5-6 months. All the above steps will give you 99% of the target audience. I think all these activities will cost absolutely nothing expect some efforts from your home/office in your spare time.

So we expect professionalism here. Which means that delegates would be motivated enough to pay for their travel and accommodation, and also pay a registration fee. Generally in India there is a class of person who only comes if travel, accommodation are looked after and if attendance is free. People should be able to find their own sponsors if they cannot afford it. Secondly, foreign conferences are usually planned at least a year in advance. Whereas we do things 2 months in advance. Here, given it is the first one and that it will not be very ambitious, I think 6 months is ok. Through NRC-FOSS I have a fair amount of organisational resources at my command, But we are Chennai/Ooty based and hence need some one local also. If we can agree on these basics, we can go to the next stage. btw, it is premature to start a fresh mailing list or an organising committee at this stage.

Re: [BangPypers] Open source India
+1 for the PyCon India. A 3 day event. I think its high time! If not a Conference or a Track within barcamp, which is next weekend (March 7 and 8) at Yahoo EGL campus, I think we could do with a few more technical sessions of Python. The event this time around is a technology focussed event and many sessions are regisetered even related to python, web frameworks, django etc. I think some people of this list register sessions on things like Py3k porting, Py internals, for instance.

Hi Folks I have put up a small wiki page for a PyCon India. http://wiki.python.org/moin/ProposalForPyConIndia . Please feel free to share your ideas on the wiki. though we can thoroughly discuss the possibility of the conference dates, agenda, etc in this mailling list or have meetings on the #BangPypers on irc.freenode.org . I'll write a mail to David Goodger of PSF expressing the idea for an Indian edition of the conference. and for using the PyCon title for the Indian version of it.

You mean plan for a Sep 09 conference, or Sep 10 ? And shouldn't we form the mandatory top-level conference committee of supreme overlords who will have absolute oversight on everything ? Btw, we would also need a BDFL also, where "B" stands for "Benevolent" not "Benefactor", as it seems to do in some cases. Kenneth, why don't you take the lead here :) Ok, I guess I had enough fun... I really think we should form a plan for this. As a first step I suggest forming a mailing list to discuss only this topic and get Jeff Rush into the conspiracy.

Re: [BangPypers] Open source India
Last time when we tried which was 2 years back, we actually had three to four sponsors willing to cough up something like 10-20 K each which was pretty good to organize a single day event. If I remember to do an event in Bangalore at St Joseph College Auditorium, our budget was around 40-50 K which included a CD and T Shirt each for approx 200 participants. We even planned to charge a delegate fee of Rs 99/ which would have covered lunch and refreshments, plus housekeeping charges. Things fizzled out since few were willing to volunteer beyond a point. What we require is some legs (young and old) to run around. Btw the Barcamp guys had offered to actually host a Python conference within their unconference. So that could also be a start.

I think a conference where everything down from concept, planning, motives and finances were open and not controlled by a secret cabal is what we want.

Re: [BangPypers] Do we have any NetBeans IDE for Python users here?
Having not done any worth-mention active coding in past 2years, this is what I write from memory :-) OO Modelling and Visual Development, especially in terms of "free" UML modelling support, in Netbeans 6.0/6.1 was far better than what was available 'back-then' with Eclipse (I am talking of "free" tools). Also, IMHO (and I know wars have started on such topics), from a initial instialltion, download, deployment standpoing, the tight-packed Netbeans was a bit easier to manage than Eclipse. However, my use of Eclipse and Netbeans, and evaluation there-of, was for Java development. For Python development (slight hobby, foo-bar programming), I've found PyScripter (on Windows) to suffice in all respects, but a brief fling with WingIDE showed that you can get that Eclipse mulitple-small window, multi perspective 'type' features. I'm of the genre that likes their window real-estate covered with multiple apps, and not 1 app hogging everything micro-inch of screen space, so PyScripter, or Vim/Shell are what works for me -- but then, it's enough for what I do.

[BangPypers] Turbogears Pydev debugging in Eclipse
Hi, I come from the .Net/visual studio environment and i am pretty new to the Turbogears 1.0.4.4 and/or python world. I would like to know if pydev in Eclipse 3.2 supports breakpoint debugging of a Turbogears web application? If yes, this would mean setting a break point in the .py file and doing a step through/step into of the code, while the web page is displayed in the browser. Am i correct? I have tried the work around mentioned in the pydev blog(http://pydev.blogspot.com/2006/07/configuring-pydev-to-work-with.html) i.e. patching the DecoratorTools-1.7-py2.4.egg but could not achieve what i think should be supported. Is there a way to set it up? Thanks, Harpreet ___ BangPypers mailing list BangPypers@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/bangpypers

Re: [BangPypers] IDEs Presentation (was Re: Do we have any NetBeans IDE for Python users here?)
While we are at the discussion about Py IDEs, May I suggest an awesome thread on stackoverflow, discussing about Python IDEs. Here is my 2 cents to that thread: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/81584/what-ide-to-use-for-python/495355#495355 For all professional python developers, I think Wing IDE is simply the choice, because it is the best IDE out there.
