We've talked enough about having a downtown meeting, it's time to do it. I am in the process of arranging meeting space at Drexel, the date has not yet been set but I'm thinking about the 19th or the 26th of February. I'll put out a call for RSVPs when the date gets closer.

Having them both on the same day seems bad to me. Especially if they're both downtown.
I've been working a bit with Django (http://www.djangoproject.com/), the Python counterpart to ROR. I'm thinking of doing a presentation entitled 'Django As A Second Language'. It would be a comparison of Rails and Django from a practical and philosophical perspective. Would this be of interest to anyone? Any objections to going off the Ruby reservation?
I like the idea. I've always been curious to hear some of the real dirt on Django. I tried it once, but couldn't get past the somewhat PHP-like need to edit global variables for configuration.
