"Lecture Preparation" Discussions on Python

[Amir Michail]

Hi,

We are planning to have "lecture preparation" discussions in comp3141
at UNSW, where anyone can participate -- not only students taking the
subject.

There is a heavy python component in this class and I was wondering
whether anyone is interested in participating in these discussions.
We are looking for both python beginners and experts.

You can find the subject and a description of "lecture preparation"
discussions here:

http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~cs3141/

The class has about 200 3rd year software engineering students and I
hope many of them will become convinced of just how powerful and
simple python is.

While I'm generally interested in such discussions, I won't be
participating because I hate web boards. I vastly prefer netnews, with
grudging use of e-mail lists.

Me too.

Surely somebody has written a web board that'll let you subscribe to a
mailing list? (or even read a public IMAP mailbox -- not very popular,
though)

Anybody know of one?

Nice for those who can get it. The (educational) institution where I
work have, in their wisdom, decided not to make netnews available, so
I have to access even this newsgroup via a web board (GoogleGroups).

In any case it is good to see Python getting such a strong plug at
UNSW. Nice collection of Python links on that page BTW.

You don't *have* to...

Register an account at <http://individual.net/> and you have access to a
very good news server. It's a free service from a German government-funded
research institute.
