Hi

the last two evenings, i've been working on a small project that could
be of interest / inspiration for some of you.

A few days ago i've read about a list of practical projects for people
learning to program:

https://github.com/karan/Projects

It could be very useful for our programming courses... but in its
current form, the list is a bit "dry"...

I mixed together:

- A Python script that downloads the README.md file and "extracts" the
  list of projects
  https://github.com/opentechschool-zurich/cpp-co-learning/blob/master/topics/project-cards/create-cards.py

- A few icons from openlipart.org

- A Scribus file with one master page per project type.
  https://github.com/opentechschool-zurich/cpp-co-learning/blob/master/topics/project-cards/cards.sla

And the result is a Pdf with 92 cards that I will print and put on the
table next week:

https://github.com/opentechschool-zurich/cpp-co-learning/blob/master/topics/project-cards/cards-a4.pdf

I've missed some function in the scripter -- like being able to set
character styles -- but it was a funny and pleasant project!

And, now, it's time for some sleep.

Good night
