Thanks for the info and offer - Sean too. Let me do some thinking and see if
I can come up with a potential plan. I think what will work best is a short
(like 1-2 hours) overview and into to Python. Perhaps it could be offered to
both students and the few staff that would be interested. Opening it to
NCLUGers would be good too but I'm not sure about the potential issues
around something involving students and non-staff. My main hope was to
encourage more programming at the school (long story) and some selfish
interests as well. I think I can most definately offer a lab if it's aimed
at students and/or staff. I'm not sure about how it would go over for an
NCLUG meeting but I'll look into it. However, there are probably options
more closer to home for most of us (public library, CA labs).
Thanks again.
