A Battle Police SIG will therefore be needed. Their sole task will be to ensure that all the volunteers spend their time working on Python and not frivilous pursuits like day jobs or leisure activities. The colours will be raised outside of RR's home at 05:00 Saturday 02/03/2013. For more data please contact RR directly, not me. -- Cheers. Mark Lawrence
