Hello, It's not often that I find myself posting to the Web-SIG list these days, but I find myself almost obliged to ask whether anyone is considering submitting talk proposals about Web programming to the EuroPython 2008 conference (to be held in Vilnius, Lithuania from 7th July until 9th July, with sprinting possibilities from 10th July until 12th July).
In my monitoring of the Internet for mentions of EuroPython, I see that there's a survey out there which is asking for opinions about a Zope conference [1], with questions related to EuroPython. Last year, there were quite a few Zope talks, although perhaps not at the level enjoyed when there was a special Zope track at EuroPython. A few other Web-related technologies did also get coverage in the schedule, however: FormEncode, Genshi, KSS, Nevow, Pylons, Silva, WSGI, to name just a few. Nevertheless, Web programming (including and beyond Zope) has always been a major component of EuroPython, and it would certainly be interesting to see talks describing what people are doing with Python on the Web, whether it be the development of classic server-side Web applications, the usage of Python on the client side, or even the management of infrastructure using Python - large-scale computing is becoming an increasingly popular topic. Anyway, details of talk submissions and other activities at the conference can be found here: http://www.europython.org/community/CallForParticipation And the EuroPython site can be found here: http://www.europython.org/ Yes, it's running MoinMoin - a possibly unfashionable choice (and arguably unpopular in certain circles) - but maybe even the MoinMoin developers might consider sharing some of their insights on developing and customising MoinMoin as a talk. ;-) I look forward to seeing many talk submissions of a Web-related kind!
