As you know, we recently held our Polish Python Competition on CheckiO. Poland was chosen by the community in a poll in the CheckiO forum as the country for the second competition, we'd like to share some information for our Polish Python Devs and any others who have an interest.

Founded in 2014, the Polish Python User Group, sometimes known as PLPUG, is an official community of Polish developers, users and enthusiasts of Python.

PLPUG is providing a new complex platform soon which has a goals of strengthening the Python community:

Helps people exchange experiences, opportunities, solutions and ideas,
