Sadly, hotels don't operate on a "charity model" although I

• ANN: Nose Plugin to run JavaScript tests I've been messing around with a Nose plugin that discovers JavaScript test files (just like .py files but ending in .js). It collects them and runs them all at the end in a java subprocess using Rhino.

• February Meeting Part II The feedback for this meeting that needs sort out. Thanks in advance for everyone who stepped up to the plate. It will certainly be one of our best, if not the best ever...

• Visio Altenatives Looking for Visio alternatives I came across Dia, which seems to be scriptable with Python <http://projects.gnome.org/dia/python.html>. I am just looking for some free flow charting software. Has anyone tried, Dia? UML and Python scriptability support is a plus, but not my primary goal. I need to send a flowchart as PDF to an international
