- Face to face
- Meetings
- Monthly
- Every month we try and get together for some face time at our monthly meeting. They are informal events; anyone interested in learning more or helping out is welcome to come and ask (or answer) questions. We try to keep the meeting agenda page up to date so people can come informed with some idea of what to expect. Monthly meetings are normally held on the last Wednesday of each month, but occasionally vary due to space availability. Times are announced on the general and announce mailing lists, on the news page, and on the monthly meeting page.
- Weekly
- A small group of core members gather almost every week at our weekly meetings. We get together to work on problems that need to be solved. If you are just looking for help getting started your best bet is the mailing lists, but if you're looking to get seriously involved, this is the best way to meet the team. Weekly meetings are normally held every Tuesday, except the last week of each month, in which case the monthly meeting takes precedence. Times are normally announced on the general list a couple of days before they happen.
- Playdays
- Playdays are a time and place for all interested people to gather, listen to some presentors, exchange ideas, break up into focused groups and work at building up each others knowledge. Often the Playdays have a focus of one particular topic.
- Workshops
- Workshops are set up to work on particular projects. They tend to be very hands on and often produce items of use by the participants or the PTP in general.
