ANN: PyVISA 1.1 -- GPIB, USB, RS232 instrument control
Hallöchen! At http://pyvisa.sourceforge.net you can find information about the PyVISA package. It realises Python bindings for the VISA library functions, which enables you to control GPIB, USB, and RS232-serial measurement devices via Python. Yesterday I released version 1.1, which works much better together with older VISA implementations. Moreover, we finally have reports from Linux users. They successfully used PyVISA with Linux + NI/Tektronix GPIB hardware. Tschö, Torsten.

What Guido does for his day job
Ever wonder what Guido has been doing at Google? Now is your chance to find out! Guido has worked at Google for nearly a year. He splits his time between working on Python and working on Google projects. He will be giving a presentation and demo on Nov 30, 2006. I won't spoil it, but this talk will touch on some aspects of Google's development process and what Guido has done to improve it. He did such a good job, engineers voted his project one of the top 10 accomplishments! The talk will be at 7.00pm on Nov 30, 2006 at Google Headquarters in Mountain View, CA in Building 43, room: Tunis. The talk is targeted towards anyone interested in software development. It's not Python specific. For updates, check http://code.google.com/ I believe the talk will be videotaped and put on Google video. I hope to see lots of new faces! n -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-announce-list Support the Python Software Foundation: http://www.python.org/psf/donations.html
Sydney Python Users Meetup
Tonight November 23 from 6:30-8:30 pm, there will be a social gathering of Sydney Python Users Group and any individuals interested in discussing Python, Web, Zope, Plone, Ruby, Perl etc over drinks. Laptops, code review etc allowed. We will meet on the ground floor next to the internal entrance of P.J. O'Briens Pub at the Grace Hotel, corner of York and King Streets. To help find us, look for me, I am similar to the individual in this photo, http://osdc2006.cgpublisher.com/proposals/22/index_html but now a little older and even less hair.
