I see dave0 has started an OCLUG project page. How can I add my name to it as a contributor? Or to any other project, for all that?

First entry.Working mostly on the website for the Ottawa Python Authors Group. The site's not live yet, but will be soon. Other members include dyork.

I'm also psyching myself up for returning to school on July 23. I'll be attending the Praxis Training Institute here in Ottawa, Canada.

I have one or two articles in Linux Journal on their way.

So long for now!
