Python Workshop -- schedule correction

My mistake on the time of the Python Workshop:

Unlike our normal meeting schedule of 1:00 - 4:00 pm, this month's meeting, for the Python Programming Workshop, will be from 10:00 am - 1:00 pm.

This is so that teachers who are coming with their student teams for the Programming Contest can attend both. The contest starts at 8:30 am and should finish by 2:30. So teachers can start their teams off on the contest, then go to the workshop if they want to, and finish up in time for the end of the contest.

Details about the Python workshop are here. You should bring a laptop to work on, with Python installed on it, and please note Hélène's warnings about versions.


Sorry for the confusion on the original announcement.
