Psyched for Pycon 2009
I’m jazzed to be heading to Chicago again this year for pycon. Last year I had a blast and learned a lot. I even got to apply some of what I learned in practice at work and on personal projects! I’m hoping that I’ll take away as much value from the conference this year. A quick look at the talks suggest that won’t be a problem.
I’m going to try to blog while I’m there, but most likely you’ll get more out of me via twitter, so why not follow me there?
Here’s the list of talks I really want to attend:
There is no order here, scheduling is the tricky part..
- How to Give a Python Talk — Mr. Andrew M Kuchling
- Paver: easy build and deployment automation for Python projects — Kevin Dangoor
- Building tests for large, untested codebases — Dr. C. Titus Brown
- Coverage testing, the good and the bad — Ned Batchelder
- Designing Applications with Non-Relational Databases — Ben Bangert
- Pinax: a platform for rapidly developing websites — James Tauber
- Panel: Functional Testing Tools in Python — Panel, multiple folks.
There’s more, but those are the ones that stuck out to me.. Don’t think I’m in too much danger of missing anything this year.
A few of us at AG Interactive are planning a night of getting together for what we’re dubbing as #pyconbeer on twitter, so keep a search up: Twitter #pyconbeer I’m thinking we’re going to shoot for Friday evening, the 27th.
Hope to see many of you there and put names to faces!
