Python User Groups
Below is a listing of Python User Groups, local gatherings of
Python enthusiasts. If your group isn't listed or if your information
is out of date, please write webmaster@python.org. If your
group has a special event you'd like to see listed on the Events page, please write events@python.org.
Python User Groups are sometimes called PIGgies, for Python
Interest Group meetings. The term PIGgies was coined by the Bay Area
PIGgies group.
03-Jun-2003: We're now able to host user group mailing
lists! The lists are hosted on usergroups.python.net. If you
would like us to host your PIGgie mailing list, please
follow these directions.
There was an
ONLamp

If you'd like us to host your PIGgie mailing list on
usergroups.python.net,
please write to
webmaster@python.org and
include the following required information:
- The name of your user group. This will be used as the list name
@usergroups.python.net, so make sure it's unique.
- The location of your user group (city, state, province, country).
- The name and email address of your group leader. This person will
become the mailing list administrator.
- Your user group's primary web site, if available.
- Your mailing list's primary discussion language, if not English.
Note that if this is one of the
languages supported by GNU
Mailman, we'll make it the default language for your list
(English will always be an option).
We will auto-generate a password for the list administrator, and the
group leader will receive a confirmation message with this password as
notification that the list has been created. If we have questions
before creating the list, we'll contact the group leader. Once the
list is created, you'll be free to customize it and open it up for the
public.
