I'm a project manager for nonprofit and other do-gooder web development projects.
Location: Calcutta, India, and Chicago, IL
Standard Set Answer:
I've been interested in Python for years, and have dabbled in it, but have never found time for a more formal course of study. I would also like to develop a better foundation in programming in general, since my experience so far has been to hack existing code (mostly in the Drupal CMS theming layer) without a thorough understanding of the design or development of modern software.
I would love to help with the study group organization. What would this entail?
8pm would work best for me, since I'm currently traveling in India, and otherwise I'll end up pulling all-nighters on study group days :) Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday would all work, with a slight preference for Thursday.
