I have been a Python developer, amongst other languages, for over ten years and first started using Django a few years ago. I have worked at the University of Bristol throughout this time and developed the University’s Plone based public web sites CMS.
I work in team that also does external commercial work and like having a foot in both camps, along with being involved with the Python community. This involvement is mainly via local groups, sprints, Planet Python and a few Plone and Django add ons
I have given talks within the University, at local developer community events, and at DjangoCon Europe last year. I am currently spending half my time re-developing our national survey system, BOS Online Surveys from Perl into Django, and the rest developing internal python applications for the University.
