Technical Ramblings

Recently, a number of local Python users have assembled some form of organization, to the point that there is actually now relatively regular meetings of these groups of people (before other Linux Users Group gatherings, thus far). With the recent Nokia Python announcement, there’s been some renewed interest in my mobile python work, so I’m hopefully going to get some of that into shape over the weekend for a demonstration to the group on Monday, assuming I can make the meeting.

For those of you who have an interest in Python: What do you think would be interesting to a bunch of Python coders as a demonstration? Is there something that’s particularly spiffy that I could show off, or convert from being a command line application to being a cell phone application? Note thave I’m thinking relatively simply here: I only have a relatively limited memory space to work in, and I only have a small subset of modules to work with, and I’m in Python 2.2.

So, what do you see as being interesting topics/programs to demonstrate to the world the power of Python on the cell phone?

I’m really looking forward to getting together with a bunch of like-minded hackers, and racking their brains on what I can do better. I’ve never really had a good development process before, but Python developers seem to have one, especially the ones that I’ve seen discussing things on the mailing list. I’m used to LiveJournal’s spaghetti code, or writing in PHP which is typically not so well tested. It’ll be interesting to enter conversations with a group of more “formal” developers than myself.

Just looking for thoughts on what I should be working on.
