Hi Dave. Welcometo the Herefordshire LUG.

I'm certainly not up to hacker status re Python as yet, but I am delving 
into Zope and Plone which uses python. Plone is a Content management 
system based on the Zope framework on which you can create a fully 
dynamnic website that can do almost anything ! (Well if you know how to 
code !! ).

Anyway, it's an intesting learning experience so far.

Hope to see you at the next meeting.

Julian
