On May 11th, the Puerto Rico Python Interest Group (prPIG) is proud to announce our first ever
Python Parranda. The Parranda is part Python InstallFest and part Meetup/Sprint. It will be Saturday morning from 9am till 12pm at the Telegrafo building on Ponce de Leon, San Juan, Puerto Rico.
The group decided that getting the Python community ready for the upcoming Puerto Rico Tech Summit. what was most important need. The Tech Summit, 06/06/13, is sponsored by the Puerto Rican Government, and it’s CIO Giancarlos González. The first of it’s kind, the Tech Summit is a direct outreach to the Puerto Rico software development community to participate in access to governmental data; especially the Government Hackathon being held simultaneously with the summit.
The data being made available for the hackathon is a direct result of the MOU Governor Alejandro Garcia Padilla signed on 2/28/13. Following President Barack Obama’s lead, Governor Garcia requested every government agency to make an API within 90 days.
Note: prPIG is kindly sponsored by the Internet Society, through their Community Grant program. We are deeply grateful for all of the support we have received so far, it has been well beyond our wildest expectations.

Puerto Rico came in 2011. Liked it very much. Even Puerto Rico excursion notes written here (gezi). The place to see before you die.
