Don't worry - it will have a nice friendly title by the time I present it. I'm currently aiming for OSCON, which isn't until August. It's going to be aimed at people who _know_ Python, but aren't necessarily experts, and focus not just on performance, but maintainable and sane code (for instance, not many people seem to realise that __del__ methods are almost always not the right answer to a problem). > How about "Python - You Can Have Your Cake And Eat It Too". Nah - I have a bunch of ideas kicking around in my head, something will pop out. I doubt I'll ever be able to top the title of my pycon talk, though...
