Hi Steve,

I have made a start at 
https://wiki.python.org/moin/TipsForInHouseUserGroups which is linked 
from https://wiki.python.org/moin/LocalUserGroups I hope that this 
format is OK. I will try to add some more content later.

​Such schemes can take a little managing, but mostly it's all about
communication. With luck the rights Chris has already given you include the
ablility to create new pages. I'll be interested to see what you can come

Re: [pydotorg-www] Request Edit Permissions

[Steve - Gadget Barnes]

I agree that since it is a closed group there are some inherent 
limitations but how about:

a) The fact that company python user groups exist &
b) possibly some examples of companies that have one
c) the rational for having one
d) some hints & tips on setting up & hosting one within the readers company.

I know that a, b & c would have been useful to us & d probably still 
would be.

Additionally, publicising that such groups exist might open the 
possibility of having guest "speakers" from outside of the company.

Looking forward to any feedback.

Steve

I'd have though some GE intranet site might have been more appropriate, but
I suppose it would be publicising Python's popularity ... S

Hmm, I'm not sure how useful that would be. If the group is closed in
nature (only people in your company can attend your company's group
meeting), it would be more appropriate to publicize it only within the
company. Others may disagree, though, and I'm not authoritative here.
(If it's open to everyone while still being held on company grounds
and/or sponsored by the company, that's different, of course.)

Hi,

My user name is SteveBarnes & I would specifically like to be able to 
edit the Local User Groups page (to add pyDiff http://www.pydiff.wales/ 
and Python DBBUG (https://www.meetup.com/python-dbbug/) and correcting 
the year of the 2018 Europython (on 
https://wiki.python.org/moin/EuroPython it is shown as occurring in 2017).

I am also wondering if there is any interest in mentioning company 
(internal) python user groups? Such groups don't exactly fit into the 
"Local" user groups categories but are probably well worth mentioning. 
Some hints & tips for such groups would also be a valuable resource. (I 
am an organiser of such a group within GE so have both some experience 
and a vested interest).

No problems. Be sure to read the instructions at the top of the pages,
and don't remove anyone else's entry when you add yours (it's easy to
do accidentally, and results in that person getting understandably
annoyed).
