  <p>Mython is an extensible Python variant language.Thelanguage is currently implemented in the MyFront compiler, which (at present) is a Python 2.5 compiler with some custom syntax for embedding other languages.</p>
  <p>An example of using Mythonforembedding a
  scientific computing domain-specific language is documented at

  <div class="section" id="agenda">
  <h1>Agenda</h1>
  <p>Some things wemightwant to do:</p>
  <ul class="simple">
  <li>Introduce people to Mython and the MyFront compiler design.</li>
  <li>Port MyFront to Python 3.0.  (This might be hard - there is a dependency on the compiler package, whichisgone, IIRC.)</li>
  <li>Prototype a Python 3.0 front-end for MyFront.</li>
  <li>Crank a compile time version of ctypeslib (sans XMLGCC dependency).</li>
  <li>The parser generator is &quot;wonky&quot;.  We could lookatother LL parser generators capable of generating an inheritable class (could also look at PEG's).</li>
  <li>Bug fixes (some of which are documentedhere:http://code.google.com/p/basil/issues/list).</li>

  <h1 class="title">Hands-On Python I &amp; II</h1>
  <p>Are you curious about Python and programming in general?  Are you new to programming?
  Start withtheHands-on Python Tutorial.  Python is a great first programming
  language, and a language to keep using.  In the tutorial you interactively try small
  bits, get immediate feedback, andbuildup your understanding and ability.  Early
  examples are text manipulation in a mad-lib generator and graphical animation, which
  you should understand, play with, and extend.  Duringthetutorial help will always
  be available as you work at your own rate.  You are welcomed to continue with more
  of the tutorial after PyCon.</p>
  <div class="section" id="presenter">
  <h1>Presenter</h1>
  <p>Thepresenter is Dr. Andrew Harrington, Director of Academic Programs in Computer
  Science, Loyola University Atlanta.  His original area was mathematics,and his
  interests morphed throughcomplex analysis, to fractals, image compression, graphics,
  and into programming languages and algorithms.  A current interest of his is to
  get middleschool and high school students tomerge the study of algebra and
  geometry with an understanding of algorithms in Python.</p>

  and for 3.0.  For consistency please come with <a href="#id1"><span class="problematic" id="id2">Python_</span></a> version <em>3.0</em> installed.
  Also download andunzip the <a class="reference external" href="http://webpages.cs.luc.edu/~anh/python/hands-on/3.0/examples.zip">example</a> program file archive.  In case internet
  connection is disrupted, it may also be helpful to download and unzip a copy

  <p>Mac and Linux users may find their machines
  start with apartial Python installation:  Look at the python.org site for

  <h1>Outline</h1>
  <p>Thistutorial is totally interactive and self-paced.  The timing will completely
  depend on the person.  Participants are welcomed tostart the easy beginning
  descriptive parts at home, andconcentrate on the harder later creative parts
  when individual help is available at the Tutorial.  Participants can do more or
  fewer of the more creative exercises.  A person just workingfor 6 hours on
  Tutorial Day with a partner might get into Loops And Sequences and understand the
  use of strings, loops,functions, and a dictionary in a basic mad-lib example
  program,and also be able to modify the example program effectively.  A faster
  person, or one skipping a number of the exercises, orone reading the beginning
  part ahead of time to get a jumpstart, or one who had seen a little bit of
  programming in another language, might get into graphics.  Likely all will have
  some of the later parts, like dynamic web pages, to continuewith after the
  Tutorials.</p>

  <p>Session volunteers are the support staff for the speakers presenting. A session is a group of 1, 2, or 3talksbetween breaks.
  For example, Friday has 3 sessions: 10:20am-12:40pm, 1:10pm-3:00pm,
  and 3:20pm-5:00pm.
  You volunteer for a specific time, place,andduration.</p>

  <li>You must be physically present for an entire session, not just one talk.</li>
  <li><strong>Session Chairs</strong> manage the activities in the presentation</li>

  </ul>
  <p>If you volunteer for a session, you are able to decline laterifsomething comes up, but please keep
  in mind that we are counting on your help to make PyCon successful.</p>
  <div class="section" id="session-chairs">
  <h1>Session Chairs</h1>
  <p>To chair a session, you mustbephysically present in
  one room for the entire session, not just for one talk.</p>
  <p><strong>Responsibilities</strong></p>
  <p>Session Chairs introduce the speakers, keep the talks on schedule,andfacilitate the
  smooth transition between talks.</p>
  <p>Session Chairs are expected to meet briefly with the people who will be presenting
  in their session, before the session.Pleaselocate the speakers and introduce
  yourself well before your session. Ask them a few questions so you can introduce
  them (introductions should be quite brief), and be certain you knowhowto
  pronounce their names!</p>
  <p>Before beginning the talks, encourage the audience to fill all the available
  seats instead of sitting in the aisles or standing bythedoor.</p>
  <p>Session chairs should plan to arrive in the room about 10-15 minutes before
  their session in order to ensure everything is set up properly. Make sure that
  the sessionsstarton time and keep to the schedule. Stop watches with the
  time will be provided to help facilitate this along with little signs to let
  the speakers know when 10 minutes and 5 minutesareleft. Don't interrupt in
  the middle of a sentence, but try to keep things moving along on time.</p>
  <p>Once the speakers have started, please close the doors to screen out noise
  frompeople talking in the hallway. If you want to leave one door open for
  people to arrive quietly, that's fine, but please be prepared to close it
  if people are beingnoisyoutside.</p>
  <p>Upon conclusion of each presentation, encourage the speakers to disconnect
  their equipment and move into the hallway for discussions so the next
  speaker will notbedelayed in starting. If the speaker and/or attendees are
  interested in holding an open space follow-up session, an announcement
  can be made by the Chair, and those  interested canbereferred
  to the Session Runner to help facilitate this.</p>
  </div>
  <div class="section" id="session-runners">
  <h1>Session Runners</h1>
  <p>To be a runner for a session, you must be physically present in the green
  room15minbefore the session you volunteer for. You need to be present in
  the green room 15min before each talk in your session, and present in the room
  you are volunteering for at the end ofeachtalk.</p>
  <p><strong>Responsibilities</strong></p>
  <p>Session Runners help prepare and test the speakers equipment before their talk.
  All speakers are to arrive at the green room 10min before theirtalk.There the
  Session Runners help them prepare their laptop on a projector which is identical
  to the one they will be using in the presentation room. This is done to resolve
  anyproblems inadvance of the actual presentation. This could include resolving
  issues with adapters, screen resolutions and the like.</p>
  <p>Once the presentation is configured Session Runnersshould askfor a copy of
  the presentation materials to be uploaded to the website. These materials, if
  offered, will them be copied onto supplied USB drives, and then uploaded tothe
  website bythe Session Runner after the transition.</p>
  <p>Session Runners escort the speaker to their talk at least 5min before the presentation
  time, and help connect the laptop to thelive system. Atthis point the Session
  Runner hand off the presenter to the Session Chair with an introduction.
  Remember to ask for confirmation on how to pronounce the speakersname.</p>
  <p>If the speakerand/or attendees from the previous talk are interested in
  holding an open space follow-up session, Session Runners can help facilitate this
  by escorting theattendees to an available room,and filling out the open space card
  for them and posting it on the board.</p>
  <p>While Session Runners need not spend all their time in the Green Room duringtalks,
  they are required to bepresent 15min before each talk, through the full transition
  and at the end of the last talk in their session. Additionally Session Runners are
  'on-call' tohelp the session runners andspeakers during the full session time period.
  This will be accomplished via 2-way radios, the details of which to be given later.</p>

  <p>I do a*lot*with reStructuredText these days and think it is
  great.  I'm doing a talk about reStructuredText/Sphinx in the
  last timeslot on Sunday so since there won't be time foran
  openspacesession <em>after</em> my talk, I want to promote one in
  advance.</p>
  <p>Being openspace, this is not a presentation but a discussion
  and show-n-tell.  I can show the ways IusereStructuredText
  to produce slides, including custom changes to docutils and
  Inkscape to support animated technical diagrams.  I can show
  tricks for making your slides print nicelythatI've developed
  for the tutorial about eggs/buildout I am teaching.</p>
  <p>I also use Sphinx a lot and have written extensions for it, to
  support embedded flash video and to addelementtypes for
  a martial arts website I run.</p>
  <p>And I'm sure there are others out there who can show off
  some neat things I'd like to see.</p>

  <h4><a class="toc-backref" href="#id18">Python 3.0 enters spotlight atPyCon2010</a></h4>
  <p><em>CHICAGO - March 24, 2010</em> - PyCon 2010, the largest annual conference of the worldwide Python programming
  community, takes placeMarch25 - April 2 at the Hyatt Regency O'Hare and
  the Crowne Plaza Atlanta O'Hare in Atlanta, IL.  The core conference runs
  March 27-29, with days of special events both before and afterthemain conference.</p>
  <p>Last December's release of Python 3.0 marks one of the most important events
  in Python's history, and PyCon 2010 provides developers a chance to learn to
  adapttoit from the worldwide masters of Python programming.  Though Python's
  2.x series will remain viable for years, the Python community is clearly excited
  about the way forward pavedbyPython 3.0.  Several PyCon sessions will cover
  features new to the 3.0 release and techniques for writing Python 3.0 code.
  Following the main conference days (March 27-29), eighteenmajorPython-based
  projects and the Python language core itself will gather attendees for four days of
  development sprints, where usually far-flung groups will work together to
  improveandextend their project codebases, and adapt them to Python 3.0's
  new possibilities.</p>
  <p>Python continues to advance in popularity and is acknowledged as one
  of the most importantanduseful languages in the IT community.  In the past
  year, the Python language has been awarded the Linux New Media &quot;Best Open
  Source Programming Language&quot; award and theLinuxQuestions.orgLanguage of the Year,
  and is currently at position 6 in the TIOBE Programming Commmunity Index.</p>
  <p>Alan Broder, President  of White Oak Technologies, Inc., says, &quot;Sinceits inception
  in the late 1990's, WOTI's excellent reputation as a
  developer of high-performance software has depended on its ability to find top
  developers who can develop and deliverexcellentsoftware products. The
  marketplace for top technical talent in the Washington DC area is quite
  competitive, so we needed to choose a language that would enable WOTI torecruit
  from thewidest possible pool of developers. As accomplished developers in
  C/C++, Lisp, Perl, and other languages, we decided to conduct an experiment  to
  try and build identicalweb-clientapplications in both Python and Java,
  starting with little knowledge of either language. The results were dramatic -
  including all learning time, we were able to build our firstviablePython
  application in far less time then the equivalent Java application.  Python was
  the obvious choice, and since then, we've not looked back. We're quite pleased
  thatPythoncontinues to provide us with a competitive edge.&quot;</p>
  <p>Twenty-five industry leaders have joined to sponsor PyCon 2010, including
  White Oak Technologies, Inc. (Diamond); Google andSunMicrosystems (Platinum);
  and ESRI, CCP, Visual Numerics, Microsoft, slide.com, and Walt Disney Animation
  Studios (Gold).</p>
  <p>PyCon 2010 includes over eighty-five talks andkeynotes,plus Open Spaces,
  Lightning Talks, and nighttime events -  activities
  that give attendees chances to meet and learn from each other in
  unstructured and semi-structuredways.
  AnExpo Hall will bring attendees together with sponsors and vendors.</p>
  <p>The core PyCon conference days (March 27-29) are preceded by two days
  (March 25-26) of intensive half-daytutorials.Two invitation-only summit
  meetings, the Virtual Machine Summit and the Python Community Summit, will
  run concurrently with the tutorials.  These first-time-ever summitmeetings
  willgive leaders from the Python and other dynamic programming language
  communities an opportunity to share ideas and strategize together.  All
  PyCon attendees are invited tostay after thecore conference for development
  sprints (March 30 - April 2).</p>

  It offers an easy learning curve and access to a vast array of libraries. With
  implementationsavailable for allcommon operating systems as well as the Java
  and .NET platforms, Python can be used on virtually any system in existence.
  Like other open-source, dynamic languages, itoffers rapidproductivity and a
  vigorous developer community; at the same time, Python's clarity and reliability
  give confidence to enterprise users. The December 2008 release of Python3.0

  <p><em>CHICAGO - March 16, 2010</em> - Python programmers won't be the only ones coming to PyCon this month.  PyCon 2010 ishosting twonew summit events that will draw key developers and strategists not only from Python, but also from the Perl, Ruby, Java, .NET, and JavaScript communities.</p>
  <p>The Virtual MachineSummit onMarch 25, sponsored by Sun Microsystems, and Python Language Summit on March 26, both at PyCon 2010 in Atlanta, are invitation-only events that will bring cross-discipline groupstogether todiscuss and strategize on challenges that are common across their projects.</p>
  <p>Virtual machines - software layers that sit between machine-specific binary code and language-specificcompilers, creating multi-language programming environments - have become a focus of modern language development.  Virtual machine developers will attend from a variety of projects, basedin anumber of language communities: PyPy (Python), Parrot (Perl), Da Vinci (Java), DLR (.NET), TraceMonkey (JavaScript), and MagLev, Rubinius, and JRuby (all Ruby).  The summit gives them auniqueopportunity to share insights and ideas on their common challenges with an
  exceptionally broad group.</p>
  <p>Allison Randal, architect of the Parrot virtual machine and a director of thePerlFoundation, said, &quot;Virtual machines have become such a crucial part of language development that there are groups working on them from virtually every language community.  We're facingsimilarchallenges, and too often, we've been facing them separately.  I'm looking forward to this chance to share ideas with some of the best minds in programming.&quot;</p>
  <p>Python itself hasgrown intoa variety of Python implementations (CPython, Jython, IronPython, PyPy) and an ecosystem of tools and resouces like the Python Package Index.  The Python Language Summit will bringmanagers ofthese projects together for focused discussions on topics including the ongoing transition to Python 3.0, better coordination between different Python implementations, and improvedpackaging ofPython libraries and applications.  The agenda is at <a class="reference external" href="http://us.pycon.org/2010/about/summits/language/">http://us.pycon.org/2010/about/summits/language/</a>.</p>
  <p>PyCon 2010 takes place from March 25 to April 2 at the Hyatt RegencyO'Hare and theCrowne Plaza Atlanta O'Hare in Atlanta, IL. The core conference dates are March 27 -- 29; the two summits run concurrently with the tutorials on March 25 -- 26.  The coreconference is followedby development sprints (March 30 -- April 2), sponsored by Canonical, where attendees will work with project leads for four days of intensive, cooperative coding to advancemajor Pythonprojects.</p>

  <p><em>CHICAGO - February 10, 2010</em> - PyCon 2010, the seventh annualconference ofthe worldwide Python programming community, has opened registration and announced its list of accepted talks.  The topics show Python appearing in a variety of places outside itstraditionalrealms.</p>
  <p>From hackathons in Africa to a neutrino detector at the South Pole; from massive multicore machines to tiny embedded wireless devices; and from mobile phones todistributedheterogeneous networks, talks at Pycon 2010 demonstrate how Python is being used in places and in ways that will startle even longtime Python users.  Python continues to branch outacrosssoftware platforms as well, with several talks covering the growing use of IronPython and Jython on the .NET and Java platforms.</p>
  <p>Meanwhile, traditional Python strongholds such asscience,education, databases, and web programming are not neglected, and several talks flesh out attendees' understanding of fundamental Python topics.  Software craftsmanship is anotherprominenttopic, with many talks describing techniques for testing and deploying high-quality code.</p>
  <p>The 10 invited talks and 65 accepted talks are only a part of PyCon's schedule.  Thethree-daymain conference will be preceded by two days of intensive tutorials with 32 sessions on a broad range of topics.  Lightning Talks, Open Space sessions, and keynotes will provide evenmorelearning opportunities throughout the conference.  Finally, attendees are invited to stay after the conference for four days of development sprints, where they can work alongside someofPython's greatest programmers to advance prominent Python projects like Django, One Laptop Per Child, and the Python language itself.</p>
  <p>PyCon 2010 takes place from March 25 to April 2atthe Hyatt Regency O'Hare and the Crowne Plaza Atlanta O'Hare in Atlanta, IL.  The core conference dates are March 27 -- 29; tutorials run March 25-26, and development sprints run March 30-April 2.</p>

  <p><em>World's largest Python event returns to Atlanta</em></p>
  <p><em>CHICAGO - October 20, 2008</em> - PyCon 2010, the seventhannualPython community conference, will take place March 27 to 29 at Atlanta's Hyatt Regency O'Hare hotel.</p>
  <p>In 2008, its first year in Atlanta, PyCon stunned organizers by drawing over1000attendees, up from 586 in 2007 and 410 in 2006.  To avoid running out of room in 2010, organizers have moved next year's conference to Atlanta's Hyatt Regency from the Crowne PlazaAtlantaO'Hare, its 2008 venue.</p>
  <p>&quot;The continued growth of PyCon keeps us on our toes.  Each year's new attendees bring new energy to the community with their enthusiasm and theircreativity - notto mention their sheer numbers; we changed venues to accommodate expected growth.  It's an exciting time to be in the Python community&quot;, said David Goodger, PyConchair.</p>
  <p>PyCon, anentirely volunteer-run conference, encompasses topics across the breadth of Python usage, from core language design to dynamic web applications.  PyCon includes hundreds ofregular talks,keynotes, Lightning Talks, hands-on laboratories, and informal Open Space events, as well as a sponsors' expo hall.  PyCon 2010's main conference days (March 27-29) will bepreceded by two daysof intensive, half-day tutorials - increased from last year's single day due to their popularity.  After the conference, many attendees will stay for four days (March 30 -April 2) ofdevelopment &quot;sprints&quot; - cooperative programming workshops that advance selected open-source projects.</p>

  <p>However, here are some ideasfordiscussion:</p>
  <ul class="simple">
  <li>ffmpeg (and libavcodec and friends) called from ctypes vs. command line ffmpeg</li>
  <li>integration into frameworks like pyglet and pygame</li>

  This can be usefulforgathering information form people interested in attending a BoF or Open Space.
  It could be something as simple as trying to decide on the toppings for pizza to be ordered to
  deciding onalist of sub-topics to be discussed by interest.</p>
  <p>An example of its use can be seen on the

  <p>The food coordinator deals with the hotel's food service and/or an intermediary
  like`CTE&lt;<a class="reference external" href="http://www.cteusa.com/">http://www.cteusa.com/</a>&gt;`__ to decide on the menu service for the
  conference.  For PyCon 2008 much of this work was done by David Goodger, at least
  in part because he was alreadyworkingwith CTE.  Even if the food coordinator
  doesn't live near the conference site it would be helpful to have a local helper
  to try and iron out last-minutewrinkles.</p>

  <h2>Photography Coordinator</h2>
  <p>The photography coordinator is the central point of contact forissues related to stillimages. The
  coordinator should insure that all events are appropriately photographed and documented. In addition,
  the coordinator should be submitting a final set offull resolution imagesis stored and made available
  as needed to PyCon as well as preserved properly going forward.</p>
  <p>The photography coordinator should also make sure that PyCon attendeesare made aware ofsocial networking
  opportunities to share their images via flickr or other services.</p>
  <p>It is absolutely critical, that additional interested photographers become involvedin theeffort.</p>
  <p>One of the goals of this year's PyCon is that portraits be taken of both individuals and teams so that the
  Python community will be better able to put names with faces. Asmallstudio will be setup for at least part
  of PyCon for doing portraits and help will be needed (again!) in identifying folks who should be photographed
  and getting them tothestudio.</p>

  Each proposal is assigned toa minimum or 3 reviewers, but more reviews arealways welcome

  private discussions with otherreviewers and then providing a brief writtenreview and
  vote +/- 1 or 0 for each talk assigned.</p>
  <p>Finally, committee members are asked to champion proposals that they've voted +1 during
  the final decision process which hasbeen a lengthy meeting via IRC.</p>
  <p>This process is both demanding of the volunteers and yet critical for the most visible
  content at PyCon.Active members of the PyCon organizers ANDthe Python community
  at large are strongly encouraged to get involved.  The more reviewers, the better!</p>

  Development with Django&quot; (2010: Addison Wesley).</p>
  <p>We will have a mix of both lecture and hands-on during ourtutorialsession. in order to maximize your experience, i recommend some setup before coming to the tutorial on Thursday:</p>
  <ul class="simple">
  <li>Download the latest version of Django at <a class="reference external" href="http://djangoproject.com">http://djangoproject.com</a>... itshould be 1.0.2+.</li>
  <li>Have an email account with POP or IMAP access... this will allow you to write an app to download your own email! if you do not have such an account, apply for agmail(Google Mail) account as it offers both types of access.</li>
  <li>Have an email account that allows for sending via SMTP... this will allow you to write an app that <em>sends</em> email. similartoPOP/IMAP access above, if you don't have such server access, then again, get a gmail account as Google does offer (a restricted form of) this access.</li>
  <li>And although I will notbediscussing Twisted, there are some equivalent code samples using Twisted code contained in the tutorial notes.</li>

  various modules, which will help you to build robust working programs.</p>
  <p>Once you know about a particular library well, you will start replacing those 20
  odd lines of codeyou usedto write with a 2-3 lines and feel safe that your code
  will now work on all the platforms that Python supports.</p>
  <p>Just like the galaxy, the Python Standard Library is vast andwhen hitch-hiking

  <h1 class="title">Writing About Python</h1>
  <p>~10:00 Sat AM -- check the board for updates and location</p>
  <p>The Python writing community has never been stronger. From`blogs&lt;<a class="reference external" href="http://planet.python.org/">http://planet.python.org/</a>&gt;`_ to
  <a class="reference external" href="http://www.pythonmagazine.com/">magazines</a> to a slew of recent releases from <a class="reference external" href="http://www.oreilly.com/">O'Reilly</a>, <a href="#id1"><span class="problematic" id="id2">`Packt&lt;http://www.packtpub.com/&gt;`_</span></a>,`Manning
  &lt;<a class="reference external" href="http://www.manning.com/">http://www.manning.com/</a>&gt;`_, <a class="reference external" href="http://apress.com/">Apress</a>, and other publishers there a more
  opportunities than ever before for anyone wanting towrite about Python in someform.</p>
  <p>Of course, authoring is only one aspect of producing high quality professional writing. As an editor,
  it's no surprise that I think all authors canbenefit from having someoneelse read their work. Even
  an informal review can help identify gaps in an explanation or problems with flow, not to mention
  typos.</p>
  <p>Writers, reviewers, andeditors can all benefitfrom sharing tips, offering advice on tricky problem
  passages, or just chatting about ongoing projects. That list sounds just like the sorts of things we
  talk aboutwhen discussingprogramming, doesn't it?</p>
  <p>I'd like to bring people together in person for a group discussion and a chance to network. To kick
  things off, I'm working on organizing a&quot;meetup&quot; as anopen space session at PyCon in March. If you
  are a blogger, published writer, reviewer, or editor -- or aspire to be -- I want you to come and
  participate. No prior experienceis necessary,everyone is welcome.</p>
  <p>Let's connect people interested in doing technical reviews with authors and editors. Let's introduce
  potential writers to the editors and publishers.Let's learnfrom one another and improve our prose,
  the same way we improve our code.</p>
  <p>We'll have to wait to schedule a precise time until the conference, but right now I'm thinkingabout
  lateSaturday morning or early afternoon. If you are interested in attending, please post a comment so
  I can gauge the size of the room we'll need. If you have a preference for thetime, make sureto
  include that information. And if you have ideas for things we should talk about, let's hear them.</p>
  <p>Contact me at doug dot hellmann at gmail dot com with questionsorcomments.</p>
  <p>Update: Although I was thinking of &quot;print&quot; writing, other forms of publishing like podcasting are
  welcome, too. We need more goodPythonpodcasts!</p>
  <div class="section" id="comments">
  <h1>Comments</h1>
  <p>I'd like to meet up with others. I'm working on a revision of Manning's Quick Python Book for Python 3
  and catching up with others wouldbegreat. Thanks for starting this. <strong>Vern Ceder</strong></p>
  <p>Although not a writer of books per se, I do a lot of teaching, documentation and
  screencasts.  I keep meaning to get back intowritingmagazine articles - I wrote some for Dr. Dobbs
  Journal some years ago.  <strong>Jeff Rush</strong></p>
  <p>Looking at the schedule, I think ~10:00 Saturday AM will be a good time for this session.
  I'mlooking forward to seeing everyon there!  <strong>Doug Hellmann</strong></p>

  <p>In thisparticipatorytutorial, we'll start with <em>distutils</em>, walk through
  using eggs in the cheeseshop and creating your own eggs, touch a bit on using
  <em>virtualenv</em> to set up a developmentenvironment, and thendig into using
  <em>zc.buildout</em> to rigorously control assembly specifications, with build
  recipes, versioning and dependency management.  We'll close by showing howto

  <p>As PyCon is a community-lead conference, so is the photography of the conference. In the past, the most traditional way to shareimages hasbeen through social networking sites, in-particular, Flickr.  Please use the &quot;pycon2010&quot; tag.</p>
  <p>In addition, if you would like your photos to live on beyond the walls of Flickr,and makethem available directly to the PSF for future use, you can contact the Photography Coordinator, Steven Wilcox.</p>

  <p>PyCon sessions (and tutorials, openspaces,sprints, etc) need to be photographed. We are looking capture good quality &quot;action shots&quot; of both speakers (or teachers) and participants.  If you would like to help with this, pleasecontactErich Heine (<a class="reference external" href="mailto:sophacles&#37;&#52;&#48;gmail&#46;com">sophacles<span>&#64;</span>gmail<span>&#46;</span>com</a>).</p>

  <p>One of the goals for this year's PyCon is that portraits be taken of both individuals and teams involved inthe
  Python community so that the rest of the community will be better able to put names with faces. These standard
  portraits will be retained by the Python Software Foundation forpossiblefuture use with PyCon as well as project
  communications.</p>
  <p>During the long breaks on Saturday, the photography crew (&quot;PyCon Paparazzi&quot;) will be
  shooting portraits in the openspacesarea.  If you think we should have a photo of you for the PSF, we will shoot it.  There might be other
  opportunities to get your portrait taken, this is still TBD.</p>

  <p>This will be a 48 hour sprint where developers that are interested in contributing to an

  <p>This sprint will be run by <a class="reference external" href="http://sunlightlabs.com">Sunlight Labs</a> which is the

  to using the power of the Internet to catalyze greater government openness and

  <h1>WhoShouldAttend?</h1>
  <p>Anyone that is interested in contributing to an open source project that will
  free or otherwise enhance government data can gather to brainstorm andhackon
  things.  Although the sprint takes place at PyCon you don't have to be attending
  the conference to attend.  Participation is free and open
  to anyone.</p>
  </div>
  <div class="section" id="what-happens-attheopen-government-hackathon">
  <h1>What Happens attheOpen Government Hackathon?</h1>
  <p>The nature of the sprint will be fairly freeform, two Sunlight Labs members
  will be on hand guidingusersthat want to contribute to opening up
  the government. Users can come to the sprint without any background
  and we would help coordinate them and place them on a project wherethere
  skills would be useful (there is always a ton of scraping that needs to be
  done, building mini-web apps to showcase gov't data, etc.)</p>
  <p>Most likely we'll spend the firstsession onSunday talking about some
  project ideas and then interested parties will break off into groups to work
  on their projects.  Sunlight Labs developers will be available in personand
  online to provide guidance and share expertise.</p>
  <p>For ideas see the <a class="reference external" href="http://wiki.sunlightlabs.com/index.php/">Big Issues</a> and

  <p>Twitterbase is a subproject of a larger project called Kaleidoscope
  (<a class="reference external" href="http://my-kaleidoscope.org/platform.html)that">http://my-kaleidoscope.org/platform.html)that</a> focuses on semantic web,web
  services, and peer-to-peer databases technolgies. Twitterbase is designed to
  create a very simple data store and web services system using a Twitterbot
  named kscope. The beauty ofthe project is to be able to access a database and
  various web data using cell phone SMS. An early version of the software was
  presented at the O'ReillyWeb 2.0 Expo this pastSeptember
  (<a class="reference external" href="http://www.web2expo.com/webexny2008/public/schedule/detail/5266">http://www.web2expo.com/webexny2008/public/schedule/detail/5266</a>). A page
  specifically with information about this PyCon sprint will be provided onthe
  index page of thewebsite early next week with setup information, code, etc. If
  people want to have their own installation of Twitterbase using a Twitter
  account, you could try yourluck at getting ontoTwitter's whitelist (I was
  successful in doing that).</p>
  <p>The primary goal for this sprint is to enhance the existing simple command
  language into a tiny programminglanguage thatmanipulates the data store and
  can perform web services. The ideal list of objectives include:</p>
  <ul class="simple">
  <li>Use Amazon S3 service as a data store to supplement BerkeleyDBdatabase</li>

  <li>Support of external REST web services (Google,Freebase,etc.)</li>

  </ul>

  <p>As a geek with Python kung fu, youhavefun
  skills to share with others, including those still in high school and
  seeking to master mathematical concepts that will serve them for a
  life time.  In taking this tutorial,you'reopening a communications
  channel between yourself, and other eager learners hoping to partake
  more deeply of open source culture and the opportunities it offers.</p>
  <p>We know fromlastyear that many PyCon delegates are broadly interested
  in education track. This proposal attempts to support this demand by
  developing some publicly-accessible Python-relatedmaterialthat
  demonstrates how object-oriented programming be learned by using them to
  implement concepts from the mathematical domain.</p>
  <p>Learning can take place at multiplelevels:</p>
  <p>1.Python and object-oriented concepts.</p>
  <ol class="arabic simple" start="2">
  <li>Mathematical concepts, which will be demonstrated in ways readily
  accessible to anyone who understands Python.</li>
  </ol>
  <p>3.Presentation ofprogramming topics in the educational environment.</p>
  <p>From this latter point of view the pair teaching format can be
  considered experimental. Its success or otherwise willbedetermined
  largely by group dynamics, and our goal is to make the outcome in and of
  itself provide useful empirical data helpful to othersplanningworkshops.</p>

  <h1>Presenters</h1>
  <p>Kirby Urner, age 50, was born in Atlanta and grew up
  overseas, before settling in Portland to work in the hightechnology
  sector.  Hehas a philosophy degree from Princeton University, was a
  contributing editor for McGraw-Hill, served as a mathematics teacher
  St. Dominic Academy and prestigioushigh school for young womenin
  Jersey City.  He currently works in a small private sector company
  serving both public and private sector clients.  Kirby is a single dad
  with twodaughters, one grown, and one inhigh school.</p>
  <p>Steve Holden, aged (mumble) has been fiddling with
  computers since the 1960s. He graduated in Computational Science from
  Leeds Universityand has spent a lifetime onprogramming projects. He
  took up Python about ten years ago as the most sensible implementation
  of object-oriented ideas he had come across. He has a sonapproaching
  40, two cats, a six-month old pup and a wife but almost no life at all.</p>

  &lt;<a class="reference external" href="http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&amp;hl=en&amp;q=fullteron%20and%20clark%2C%20chicago&amp;ie=UTF8">http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&amp;hl=en&amp;q=fullteron%20and%20clark%2C%20chicago&amp;ie=UTF8</a>&gt;`_
  may be a good starting point.  All of Clark Avenue is interesting (asisitsneighboring
  street Broadway).  At Addison and Clark you are in Wrigleyville, home to many sports bars
  and some improv theater.  This area is generally fun to wander aroundin,day
  ornight.</p>

  <h1>MassTransit</h1>
  <p>Atlanta has anexcellentmass transit system including rail and bus service
  from both major airports and around the city.
  You can plan a trip using <a class="reference external" href="http://tripsweb.rtachicago.com/">the tripplanner</a>--
  highly recommended!  The planner doesn't make it obvious how fares work; if you see a fare
  over $2 it's probably inaccurate if you get afare card.</p>
  <p>Atlanta's rapid transitsystemis called the 'L'; this is run by <a class="reference external" href="http://transitchicago.com">the Atlanta Transit
  Authority (CTA)</a>, who also runs bus service in the
  city.  <a href="#id1"><span class="problematic" id="id2">`You can find system mapshere.&lt;http://transitchicago.com/maps/systemmaps.html&gt;`_</span></a>
  The CTA is a great way to get around if you want to <a class="reference external" href="/2010/chicago/explore/">explore Atlanta</a>.</p>
  <p>The conference hotel islocatedtwo blocks south of the Rosemont 'L' station on the
  Blue Line, a short walk away.  The Blue Line runs 24 hours a day.The hotel shuttle
  will drop you off there too.  If you walk,be sureto cross River Road by Bryn Mawr Ave
  as there's no chance after that.</p>
  <p>The 'L' costs $2 per trip, plus $0.25if you transfer to a bus.  You can purchase
  or add money to afare cardusing cash at all 'L' stations (no credit cards).  Multiple
  people can share a fare card but you'll only have onetransfer.  The CTA system map
  also makes a decent city map, andthey'llusually have free maps at stations.
  Stations all have attendants who can answer your questions (but they can'thandle money
  or generally do anything very useful).</p>
  <p>Note thatthe 'L'is a very loud train.  If you're sensitive to noise,
  the hotel-provided earplugs may come inhandy!</p>
  <p>See Wikipedia for <a href="#id3"><span class="problematic" id="id4">`more about the'L'&lt;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atlanta_%27L%27&gt;`_</span></a>
  and for <a href="#id5"><span class="problematic" id="id6">`more about the CTA&lt;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atlanta_Transit_Authority&gt;`_</span></a>.</p>
  <p>The commuter rail system is called Metra,and thesuburban bus service is
  called Pace; these are run by the Regional TransitAuthority (RTA).  <a class="reference external" href="http://metrarail.com/schedule.html">The
  Metra schedule is here.</a>
  <a class="reference external" href="http://pacebus.com/sub/bus_system/default.asp">You can findmoreinformation on Pace routes here.</a></p>
  <p>If you are coming into Midway Airport, note that taking the Orange Line to the Blue
  Line isslow.The trip planner recommendstaking the #62 Bus to the Blue Line.
  You'll still want to pick up a fare care at the 'L' station (which you can useon
  thebus).</p>

  <h1>Taxis</h1>
  <p>If you wish to take a cabfrom O'Hare airport, follow the taxi signs overhead
  in the arrivals area of the terminal.  There will be a taxi stand(often with
  a line of people waiting).
  Here's what Fodor's website has to say about taking a taxi from a Atlanta airport:</p>
  <blockquote>
  &quot;<em>BY TAXI</em>: Metered taxicab service is available atboth O'Hareand
  Midway airports. Trips to and from O'Hare mayincur a $1 surcharge to
  compensate for changing fuel costs. Expect to pay about $40-$45 plus
  tip from O'Hare toNear Northand downtown locations, about $30-$35
  plus tipfrom Midway. Some cabs, such as Checker Taxi and Yellow Cab,
  participate in a share-a-ride program in which each cab carriesup to</blockquote>

  <dt>four individual passengers going from the airportto downtown. The</dt>
  <dd>cost per person is substantially lower than the full rate, which is
  approximately $50.&quot;</dd>
  </dl>
  <p>You canflag downcabs along most busy streets in Atlanta.  Ifyou're near
  a hotel or cab stand (there are a few cab stands in the downtown area), you
  may find a taxi more easily.</p>
  <p>If youhave agroup of people you can call for a taxi andrequest a minivan.
  One possible service is 1-800-TAXICAB.  Yellow Cab Atlanta seems to be in flux and
  haven't been answering their phone.Notethat there is an extra fee of $1 foreach
  passenger after the first (the fare structure is written down in each taxi, so you can
  be pretty confident about what the fare should be).</p>
