[Bradford] Python workshop

[Alice Kærast]

I'm up for this. I mentioned it at tonight's Agile Yorkshire and there
were three or four people who were interested. All of them wanted
basic Python training but are all experienced in other languages
(.net, Java, Ruby).

Lynda at Nti was also interested and keen to 'sponsor' it (provide us
with space at OBH).

Incidently, tonight was ran as Open Spaces. Like Barcamp but more
discussions than presentations. It worked really well, and I think
would do for a Bradlug evening too. We were keen to do another Open
Spaces evening and invite the Python and Ruby groups along to have a
bigger evening of discussing prgramming stuff.

Hi Bernie

I'd go if it was on a convenient date. And I think opening it up is
fine!

Thanks for working on this.

Cheers
David
