Hey guys,
An idea for our meetups, I wouldn't mind starting with a short 5-10 min
"What's new in Python" section, a time for everyone to share news that we
take notes on and email out at the end. I saw this done at a Ruby meetup
and think it's good, we should import it.
An interesting spot to ski
Excellent idea

PyCon Australia 2014 is pleased to announce that its Call for
Proposals is now open!
The conference this year will be held on Saturday 2 and Sunday 3 August
2014 in Brisbane. We'll also be featuring a day of miniconfs
on Friday 1 August.
The deadline for proposal submission is Friday April 25, 20
Rotating is a good idea, ideally it should be really interactive.
I'll be away in April: I'm fortunate to be able to attend PyCon in Montreal
then. I'm happy to do a "best-of" recap in May when I'm back. Perhaps
anyone else who's going can also chip in about their favourite talks.

Ok, so Lars is up for the May "what's new in Python, Pycon US/Montréal
edition".
Does anyone want to raise their hand for the April "what's new in Python"?

I like the idea. I think that many people on this group are already aware
of Pycoder's Weekly which is a weekly roundup of new projects, articles
etc. in Python. It is a great publication and helps keep me up to date
with what's happening in the Python world.
