PyCon 2008 (Chicago) Sponsorship Pros & Cons

Leave a Comment / PyCon / By Mike / March 25, 2008 March 29, 2008

When I went to PyCon this year, I didn’t even think about the sponsors. However, I saw their names on everything and it still didn’t bother me until the first day of the conference itself.

Leave a Comment / PyCon / By Mike / March 22, 2008 August 2, 2008

My last day at PyCon was Sunday, March 16th 2008. I was one of the unlucky who had work the following morning. This day just seemed rushed to me, which is probably why I learned the least. The first Plenary was Making Client-Side Python Suck Less with Aza Raskin. It was about Mozilla to some …

It was a pretty interesting presentation on middleware that can re-implement ZPublisher in such a way that it allows Zope2 to run within Apache + mod_wsgi.

PyCon 2008 (Chicago) – Day 1 (part one)

The first day of PyCon (not including the Tutorial Day) took place on March 14, 2008.  I finally got to see the BDFL (Benevolent Dictator For Life), Guido van Rossum. While I knew he was from the Netherlands, I hadn’t really thought of him with a Swiss-like accent. It was cool! He was mostly interesting …
