I need to know if there is anything the participants need to have loaded on their computers before arriving to the first session.

Also, if there are any computer versions or configurations that would not be compatible with the development environment.

Please tell me by Saturday, so I can inform the participants.

Thanks,

Marcy

   @wsande is this right? Anything else you would mention?

   Go to http://helloworldbookblog.com/tools/ and download the installer for your operating system. This will include everything you need. We will be using Python version 2.X.

   There's no Linux installer listed there which makes sense. In case we do get Linux participants the biggest danger is that we have people running Ubuntu Lucid which is still using Python 2.6.

   We've just added a Debian/Ubuntu/Linux Mint installer to our downloads page.

   FYI, i think it's fine if Linux folks run 2.6... unless i've missed
   something, all the code samples will work with most 2.x (even though i
   personally think that 2.6 should be the oldest version anyone should
   run). it's still cool that carter was able to throw up a Linux tarball
   however. :-)
