  <p>Thistalkconcentrates on the advancements of agile development
  tools in Python with some insights on how they might apply to database applications.
  Using SQLAlchemy as adriver for discussion,thetalk covers setting up easy_install,
  creating a virtual environment, creating your own packages using paste, setting up a
  test environment for databases, andusing coverage todeveloprobust code.
  The talk is punctuated by screencasts which the author talks over to
  show how all of these tools can be used.</p>
  <p>Basically, if you want to knowhow to set up arobustdeployment system
  that relies on a database to do it's workings, this is your talk.</p>

  <h1><a class="toc-backref" href="#id19">General Tips</a></h1>
  <p>The preparation for a successful talk startsbeforeyouarrive at PyCon.
  While developing your presentation, remember the following:</p>
  <ul class="simple">
  <li>For a 30-minute slot, you have 25 minutes to talk plus 5 minutes for
  questions. 45-minuteslotsmeanyou have 40 minutes to talk and 5
  minutes for questions. Time your talk accordingly.</li>
  <li>Rehearse your talk before giving it, and time how long it takes.
  Practice itseveraltimes-- using a camera can be helpful, or deliver it
  at a local user group or to your co-workers.</li>
  <li>Don't forget to upload your slides to the PyCon web site.</li>
  </ul>
  <p>At PyCon,thereareseveral things our speakers can do to ensure a successful presentation:</p>
  <p>#. <strong>Be Prepared</strong> - Be sure to have all presentation materials (notes, slide decks, digital media,etc.)ready
  to go with time to spare.  This will allow more time for you to become comfortable with the conference</p>

  <ol class="arabic simple">
  <li><strong>Go to the green room before yourtalkbegins</strong> -Here you can test with a projector,
  provide a copy of your slides, and be introduced to your session chair.</li>
  <li><strong>Take advantage of presentation staging times (TBD)</strong>-During offhours or other designated times,
  presentation rooms will be available for speakers and other presenters to get familiar with
  the Audio/Visual equipment at PyCon.  Bringyourlaptop,presentation media, etc. to note the
  proper settings best suited for your particular presentation.</li>
  <li><strong>Speak loudly</strong> - If you're not a practised public speaker thesinglebestthing you can do to improve your
  confidence and presentation is to speak louder than you naturally feel comfortable with. Practise helps
  but speaking loudly also makes youslowerandclearer, especially if English is not your native tongue.</li>
  <li><strong>Communicate early and often with PyCon staff</strong> - If you have a question, please ask;

  <div class="section" id="designing-slides">
  <h1><a class="toc-backref" href="#id20">Designing slides</a></h1>
  <p>PyCon does not have a published volume of proceedings, but the slides
  and other materials for talks are made available on-line.Therefore,
  be sure your presentation can be turned into a format suitable for
  online viewing. PDF, HTML and plain text are all good. Keep graphics
  reasonably sizedforwebaccess.</p>
  <ul class="simple">
  <li>The slides are primarily to support your talk</li>
  <li>Slides should not be too &quot;busy&quot;<ul>
  <li>Keep slides short.</li>
  <li>Each bullet point should have no morethanfifteenwords.</li>
  <li>Group related points.</li>

  <li>Expand as you speak if there's audience interest</li>

  <li>View yourslideson aprojector and see if they're readable.  Are
  the font sizes large enough?  Is there enough contrast between the
  text and the background?</li>
  <li>Don't try to squeeze morethan10lines of code onto the slide; if
  the font gets too small, the code will just be a meaningless set of
  squiggles to people in the back of the auditorium, and it won't be readable</li>

  <p>Mython is an extensible Python variantlanguage.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 ofusing Mythonforembedding a

  <h1>Agenda</h1>
  <p>Somethings 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 compilerpackage, 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;.  Wecould lookatother LL parser generators capable of generating an inheritable class (could also look at PEG's).</li>
  <li>Bug fixes (some of which aredocumentedhere:http://code.google.com/p/basil/issues/list).</li>
  </ul>

  <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 yourunderstanding and ability.  Early
  examples are text manipulation in a mad-lib generator and graphical animation, which
  you should understand, play with, and extend.  Duringthetutorialhelp 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, tofractals, 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 ofalgebra and
  geometry with an understanding of algorithms in Python.</p>

  <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 creativeexercises.  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 abasic 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
  partahead 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 dynamicweb 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.

  </ul>
  <p>If you volunteer for a session, you are able to declinelaterifsomething 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, youmustbephysically 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 onschedule,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 thesession.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 certainyou 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 standingbythedoor.</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
  thesessionsstarton 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 5minutesareleft. 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 outnoise
  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 arebeingnoisyoutside.</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 willnotbedelayed 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  interestedcanbereferred
  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 theend 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 beforetheirtalk.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 toresolve
  anyproblems inadvance of the actual presentation. This could include resolving
  issues with adapters, screen resolutions and the like.</p>
  <p>Once the presentation is configuredSession 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 thenuploaded 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 thelaptop 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 thespeakersname.</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 escortingtheattendees 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 Roomduringtalks,
  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 doa*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 timeforan
  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 waysIusereStructuredText
  to produce slides, including custom changes to docutils and
  Inkscape to support animated technical diagrams.  I can show
  tricks for making your slides printnicelythatI'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

  <h4><a class="toc-backref" href="#id30">Python 3.0 enters spotlightatPyCon2010</a></h4>
  <p><em>CHICAGO - March 24, 2010</em> - PyCon 2010, the largest annual conference of the worldwide Python programming
  community, takesplaceMarch25 - 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 andafterthemain 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 learnto
  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 forwardpavedbyPython 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 mostimportantanduseful 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 andtheLinuxQuestions.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 anddeliverexcellentsoftware 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 WOTItorecruit
  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 buildidenticalweb-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 buildour 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 quitepleased
  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 talksandkeynotes,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 intensivehalf-daytutorials.Two invitation-only summit
  meetings, the Virtual Machine Summit and the Python Community Summit, will
  run concurrently with the tutorials.  These first-time-eversummitmeetings
  willgive leaders from the Python and other dynamic programming language
  communities an opportunity to share ideas and strategize together.  All
  PyCon attendees are invitedtostay after thecore conference for development
  sprints (March 30 - April 2).</p>

  <p><em>CHICAGO - March 16, 2010</em> - Python programmers won't be the only ones coming to PyCon this month.  PyCon 2010ishosting 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 VirtualMachineSummit 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-disciplinegroupstogether 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 themauniqueopportunity 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 ofthePerlFoundation, 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'refacingsimilarchallenges, 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 itselfhasgrown 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 willbringmanagers ofthese projects together for focused discussions on topics including the ongoing transition to Python 3.0, better coordination between different Python implementations, andimprovedpackaging 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 HyattRegencyO'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.

  <p>In 2008, its first year in Atlanta, PyCon stunned organizers by drawingover1000attendees, 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 CrownePlazaAtlantaO'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 andtheircreativity - 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 includeshundreds 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 (March30 -April 2) ofdevelopment &quot;sprints&quot; - cooperative programming workshops that advance selected open-source projects.</p>

  as needed to PyCon as well as preserved properly going forward.</p>
  <p>The photography coordinator should also makesure 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 interestedphotographers 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 betterable 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
  andgetting them tothestudio.</p>

  <p>The primary role of program committee members is to review the talk proposals.
  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 championproposals 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 themost visible
  content at PyCon.Active members of the PyCon organizers ANDthe Python community
  at large are strongly encouraged to get involved.  The more reviewers, thebetter!</p>

  <h1>Requirements</h1>
  <p>Developers familiar with Python who are interested inexploring
  client/servernetworkprogramming with sockets, Internet client (FTP,
  NNTP, e-mail), development and web programming. Bring a laptop to try
  out examples in lecture. All of thecode used can either befound
  in&quot;Core Python Programming&quot; (2007: Prentice Hall) or &quot;Python Web
  Development with Django&quot; (2010: Addison Wesley).</p>
  <p>We will have a mix of both lecture andhands-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 athttp://djangoproject.com... 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 suchan 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*sends* 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>Andalthough I will notbediscussing Twisted, there are some equivalent code samples using Twisted code contained in the tutorial notes.</li>
  </ul>
  </div>
  <div class="section" id="class-outline">
  <h1>Class Outline</h1>
  <ul class="simple">
  <li>NetworkProgramming using Sockets--underneath all of today's

  that is done on your behalf by a more full-featuredframework.</li>
  <li>Introto Django -- time-permitting, we will go one more level up,
  with a lightweight introduction to Django. You will be able to build
  an extremely simplisticblog inabout 20 minutes! If youfind the
  existing Django tutorials all filled up, here is your &quot;out.&quot;</li>

  <h1 class="title">A Tour of Python Standard Library.</h1>
  <p>Welcome to <em>A Tour of Python Standard Library</em>. Together letusexplorethe
  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 ofcodeyou 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 vastandwhen hitch-hiking
  I will take you through some important ones that happen to be used most
  often. You can explore, ask questions, experiment through out the ride.</p>

  <p>Glad you asked. This wiki is for the promotion and coordination of potential open space events
  before theconferencestarts.</p>
  <p>Maybe a group of people want to have a BoF session and you want to
  get the word out to others in the community and keep track of the interest. This could include
  sharinge-mails,getting information out about twitter feeds, or querying for questions to discuss
  on a topic. In short this space is for you, the PyCon attendees, to communicate the intenttohold
  OpenSpace events before the conference starts.</p>
  <p>Any time before PyCon starts:</p>
  <ul class="simple">
  <li>Decide on the title and content of the event</li>
  <li>Create asite`Login&lt;/2010/profile/new/?next=/2010/openspace/&gt;`_ <em>(if you do not already have one)</em></li>
  <li>Create a wiki page for it.</li>
  </ul>
  <p>To create a page, just type a non-existing URL into yourbrowserlocation(i.e. /2010/openspace/MyNewFancyOpenSpace ), and click 'Create Page'.
  The Wiki uses <a class="reference external" href="http://docutils.sourceforge.net/docs/user/rst/quickref.html">ReStructuredText</a> for themarkup,
  anda ' <a class="reference external" href="http://docutils.sourceforge.net/docs/user/rst/quickref.html#section-structure">Title</a> ' is required.

  <p>Ifyou like,there is the option of adding <a class="reference external" href="http://moderator.appspot.com/">Google Moderator</a>
  to your Open Space wiki page.
  To add this feature you need to send a requeste-mail to <em>dougdotnapoleone at gmail dot com</em> with the url

  <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>,`Packt&lt;<a class="reference external" href="http://www.packtpub.com/">http://www.packtpub.com/</a>&gt;`_,`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 wantingtowrite 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 authorscanbenefit 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
  talkaboutwhen 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 organizinga&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 priorexperienceis 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 andpublishers.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'mthinkingabout
  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 preferencefor 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 withquestionsorcomments.</p>
  <p>Update: Although I was thinking of &quot;print&quot; writing, other forms of publishing like podcasting are
  welcome, too. We need moregoodPythonpodcasts!</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 otherswouldbegreat. 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 backintowritingmagazine 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 thissession.

  <h1>WhoShouldAttend?</h1>
  <p>Anyone that is interested in contributing to an open source project that will
  free or otherwise enhance governmentdata can gather to brainstorm andhackon

  the conference to attend.  Participation is free and open
  toanyone.</p>

  <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 themon 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'llspend 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 beavailable 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)thatfocuses">http://my-kaleidoscope.org/platform.html)thatfocuses</a> 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
  namedkscope. 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 Expothis 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 ofthewebsite 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 gettingontoTwitter'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 programminglanguagethatmanipulates 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 supplementBerkeleyDBdatabase</li>
  </ul>

  <ul class="simple">
  <li>Support for an array data structureand dataobjectreferences (like pointers)</li>
  <li>Directly integrate Twitter API as built-in functions (direct message, status
  post, etc.)</li>
  <li>Support of external REST web services(Google,Freebase,etc.)</li>
  <li>Add notification features (time-based, data-based...such as change in data)</li>
  <li>Support multiple users calling functions simultaneously</li>
  <li>Provide each user a pay-to-accesssectionusing Twitpay (<a class="reference external" href="http://twitpay.me/">http://twitpay.me/</a>).</li>
