Hi Thomas,

I wouldn't mistake lack of response for lack of interest!

I know there's a lot of python hackers around, but I think the best
strategy is to come declare an event at the space when you're free,
stick it on the wiki, and just take advantage of Noisebridge to do
some public hacking. Most days you'll pick up a few people who'll be
interested, including those who have come to meet you specially.

cc:ing a couple of folks that were involved in the old Wiki Wednesday
meetings around and about SF. I'm afraid I'm insanely busy that week,
so won't be able to make it :(
